Hi. I’m a 19 year old female and I am worried I have cancer, particularly a brain tumour. I feel like nobody is taking me seriously and it’s making me upset. I’ve been having bad headaches, a constant dull pressure at the back of my head for about 6 months now. I’ve had a full blood count test at the GP and results were normal. My gp told me it was probably chronic tension headaches. Shortly after I have started to experience dizziness that lasts for a couple of seconds at the back of my head. I’ve tried so many things. I’ve had accupunture sessions, my diet is good, I drink 1.5L of water a day, had a recent eye test (I wear lenses and glasses) tried changing my sleeping positions, fixed my posture too so I'm sitting upright. I'm not sure if this has got anything to do with it but my left arm has been hurting for about 2/3 years along with my upper left back and I was told I need to have physio as I have a weak muscle (still waiting to be referred :( A couple days ago, I started experiencing body tremors and a tight chest. I feel like my body is shaking and jittering on the inside and whilst I understand this is very similar to anxiety, I know something isn't right with me on the inside. I can't even focus on my university work and it's making me upset. Any advice? My GP doesn't take me seriously and it's so hard to get hold of them because of the current Covid situation. Any advice would be appreciated.
