Since the scans appear to show that there is no growth, perhaps you should consider some of the other things that produce these symptoms?

How much time do you spend on your computer?

I had to get an MRI for the doctor to be sure about my diagnosis, apparently they are better at finding these types of things? I dunno.

MRIs are more sensitive than a CT scan and MRIs show more details. But a CT will show a tumor... just maybe not as clearly.
