I have been being sick every morning for about 2 years but the doctor said it was stress.
I have also been suffering with lots of migranes recently. The pain is at the front of my head. These had become so painful I have cried myself to sleep. I also get a sharp horrible pain shoot through my head very quickly but only occasionly.
I quite often bump into things with my right shoulder very strange I know but it has been happening a lot recently.
Im not sure what the actual symptoms are of a brain tumour but a collegue happened to mention it in passing and now Im worried. I know im probably only being silly. I would feel I was over reacting if I asked the doctor so thought I would get some advice on here first??

headaches,early morning nausea and frontal head pains are all symptoms of migraines; which you say you've been suffering from recently.They can be stress-induced.
The above symptoms could also signal TLE -Temporal Lobe Epilepsy-but if you had that,you would be passing out or having seizures.
Brain tumours are very easy to detect and give more signs like visual disturbances,dizziness,projectile vomitting,weight loss,general malaise.,diplopia as well as the headaches.
l'm a doctor and based on what you've said,l wouldn't put a brain tumour high on my list of differential diagnoses.....but a thorough investigation should put your mind at rest.Ask for one...
Peace.

because a symptom of a brain tumour is a headache doctors often assume thats what it is as headaches are morre common than tumours, also many things bring on headaches some harmless others deadly. (we all have heard stories of doctors giving asprin for a headache only for the patient to die of a brain haemorrage).play it safe and ask for second opinion if you feel your being given brush off

Stress causes all kinds of physical symptoms. I get those sharp, quick pains in my head occasionally. Go to your doctor. That is never silly. Get a cat scan or an mri; you'll feel more assured after that.

Don't think badly! Believe what your doctor says don't have stress because if you come to believe it is a brain tumour and in fact it is not,you will produce it ;since we produce what we believe. be easy.you can't prevent what is going to happen then take it easy,yours sincerely:K.Z.

I'm no doctor, but it sounds possible. Get thee to a hospital.
