Hiya, i'm 20yrs old and im having headaches in one concentrated place, at the back left corner of my head. it is driving me up the wall.
I don't suffer from dizziness or weakness or eye strain but from time to time i have this ache/numbness/pain what can comes and goes. I can go through out the day and wont feel anything and all of a sudden there it is.

I thought it would be stress related but where the aches are, my skull is pushed out a little but ive always considered this as just part of me.
But with the pain where it is, i cant help but not think its swelling.

I should see a doc but I'm absolutely petrified and i know it would brake my heart if the verdict was not good I'm so confused of what to do, i know what i should do but i cant get myself to go and see a doctor.

Like anyone out there i cant afford this at the moment, has anyone got related symptoms

cheers Kev

Kev, your symptoms are not typical of brain cancer. However, it still could be some other form of cancer. I would encourage you not to delay seeing a doctor. If it is cancer, that could be the worse thing you could do! If it is not cancer, then why wait and worry? Go find out what is going on! Keep us posted.
