Hello and thanks for your post
Certain types of lymphoma have the potential to spread to the brain so doctors will investigate these symptoms further just to be sure. No one at this moment though, will be able to tell you if there's any cause for concern, as it's only by having further tests that anyone will be able to say.
I know things like this are very stressful but try if you can not to anticipate what might be the matter, not even your doctor can be sure at the moment. Headaches can also occur for lots of other reasons.
Waiting in circumstances like this is never easy but I’m afraid there is no real way round this. Some people find talking it through with family and friends and keeping busy can sometimes help. But until you know more it’s natural to worry.
I hope you know more soon .Please get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
Kind regards,
