What kind of cancer(s) could effect the brain/head and give me migranes continually. I'll get migranes that last for like 2 weeks and leave me drained and nausious. In the shower, when i wash my hair SO MUCH falls out. I'm 16 is it normal for a palm sized handfull to come out of my head daily?
should i be worried? or is this just jumping to conclussions?
Also, do seizures ever relate to any illnesses like Cancer? I had 2 in a row when i was 11 and the doctors never figured out why.

There are many kinds of brain tumors that can produce the symptoms you referred to, such as causing prolonged migraine headaches as well as seizures -- along with your nausea and fatigue. No, it is NOT NORMAL for handfuls of hair to come out of your scalp -- your worry is justified and deserves investigation. Please go see a doctor and get a CT-scan of your brain performed in order to rule out malignancy.

Early detection plays a significant role in cancer survival. While the following symptoms do not necessarily mean you have cancer, you should see your doctor for a complete diagnosis if you recognize any of the following:
* Change in bowel or bladder habits
* A sore that does not heal
* Unusual bleeding or discharge
* Thickening or lumps in breast
* Indigestion or difficulty in swallowing
* Obvious changes in wart or mole
* Nagging cough or hoarseness

There are more than one hundred types of cancers and each type of cancer has different symptoms . However, a few symptoms are common to all types of cancer like sudden weight loss, feeling tired, darkening of skin etc. More details and information at http://candp.org/
