Non mobile knot on my head
Hi, I have found this non mobile boney protusion on my head. It is on my left side even with my left ear about an inch away. It does not hurt or move. It just felt it a month ago. I saw a general physician who said I needed a full blood work up, which I had, but all came back normal. My other symptoms inlcude dizziness, lightheadiness, blurred vision on left eye sometimes, sweat profusely with minimal activity, headaches, extreme memory loss, hair breakage,low back pain, exhaustion, very itchy skin. I have no idea if any of these symptoms are related to the bony spot on my head. Any ideas??
No, not necessarily. A brain injury (pressure on the brain) or a benign brain tumor or even a malignant bt, usually wouldn't show up in blood work that I know of. MRI is a good way to rule out these things. Most likely you don't have something like a bt but it could a cyst or nothing to do with brain at all. But, it is a good place to start.

I am scheduled for a MRI of the brain but I just figured since my bloodwork all came back completely normal then there was no sense in going for an MRI. If it was cancer wouldnt my bloodwork be off??
I agree that it sounds neurological. You may want to see a neurologist and have a brain MRI done of the area where the bump is. Due to your symptoms. The bump may just be a cyst which can easily be removed. But it could be something else. You symptoms suggest maybe something is pressing on an area where your vision is being affected.

My idea is that its a form of skin cancer. Many people get this bump on their face or anywhere on the body as a sign of skin cancer. many people get this because earlier in life they have a really bad sunburn. im 12 and ive seen my dad with this bump and the doctor said it was skin cancer. now i dont want to scare you by saying "Cancer" but basicly you go throu a surgery and they literally cut of the bump. this form of skin cancer can be harmful if treated soon after being discoverd. hoped i helped!! :)
