Would these be symptoms of a brain tumor?

sometimes...especially when I watch a movie in the movie theater, the top part of the right side of my neck/ bottom part of the skull...hurts. But after I stand and walk around it goes away. I realize that even sometimes my memory may be affected; only with names though, if I don't think of the persons name for a while I tend to forget it. I doubt I could get a MRI though I think my doctor would think I'm crazy. But I'd like to know if someone has a brain tumor...would they have a throbbing headache all day? What are some obvious signs that everyone experiences?

I was wondering about symptoms related to secondary forms of cancer?

Is an abrupt change in vision a cue for brain cancer? What about a sinus infection that never goes away or when a persons ears become infected easyly? Bone pain and head aches? Of course all of these symtoms could be explained naturally. I had cancer and I was wondering what I have to look forward to when the end comes. Mentally I am prepared for death.

what are the symptoms/ signs of Leukemia?

I want to know what are some signs of Leukemia? If a sibling in a 9 child family already has Leukemia, does it make the chances of another sibling having it higher?

Mom new symptoms are showing in stage IV colon cancer whats happening?

She was recently diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer July 30. She has had surgery to give her a colostomy which was necessary to save her life temporary for a few more months. Mom is 79 yrs old and is so tiny weighing in at 79 lbs. She is now at home under hospice care where she is very happy instead of being at the hospital. The hospice nurse shows once/twice a week for the moment until she worsens then the visits will get more frequent. Mom was getting so strong lately and eating well and visiting with guests.. now she has a new symptom. Her tiny little feet and ankles are swelling up like little baloons. You can leave an finger indentation in them when you push on them.

What is causing the swelling I know its more than likely Edema or acities but is there really a difference between the two of them?

Does this means her kidneys are failing? Yesterday she is drinking better than the day before but urinates only once to maybe twice a day.
Is there anyone out there that has or had a loved one or friend with stage 4 and did they begin to have swelling at the feet and ankles as a beginning symptom of declining in health towards the end? I have heard that many patients begin to feel better before they begin to decline. She has felt really great the past week and a half now her feet are swelling and its completely new to us and her. What shoul we as her children expect next swellling anywhere else, loss of appetite, onger sleeping patterns, ore naps what anything will help. We are all so scared that this may be the beginning of the end for mom. If there is anything we can do to make her feel more comfortable please let us know. Thank for your responses and God Bless you all

how do i know if i have lung cancer or if the symptoms I am experiencing are actually due to overweigt?

I was doing some research as today I decided to quit smoking after an interrupted year (smoked during the spring and then back in this fall, but not during the summer) and found out that I was experiencing one symptom that could be linked to both obesity and lung cancer which is fatigue. I also have been experiencing some bothering in my upper back and some bothering in my throat

I cant afford to see my doctor because I am a college student with limited insurance and I dont know if im still on the safe or if i should seek help ASAP

Please let me know

Thanks

I was doing some research as today I decided to quit smoking after an interrupted year (smoked during the spring and then back in this fall, but not during the summer) and found out that I was experiencing two symptoms that could be linked to both obesity and lung cancer which are random chest pain and fatigue. I also have been experiencing some bothering in my upper back and some bothering in my throat

I cant afford to see my doctor because I am a college student with limited insurance and I dont know if im still on the safe or if i should seek help ASAP

rats, my bad, I thought my question got erased... I wanted to edit it so it would show that actually are TWO symptoms (as I added the random chest pains) that could be linked to both cases and not only one... sorry about this mess

Symptoms of cervical cancer?

I used to have many kidney infections...which I thought was the cause of all my problems. I am kidney infection free and still have problems. Such as terrible pelvic, stomach, and back pain. Painful intercourse, and most of the time the sheets are covered in blood if we continue and there is no pain. Sometimes, I will wake up and have terrible pain from my back and pelvis to my legs or my legs will be numb, I am very fatigued. Within a minute I can go from being wide awake to being passed out in a minute during the middle of the day multiple times a day, I have also beed very, very cold. I also have vaginal discharge and is sometimes tinged with blood. I had a pap smear today and are waiting on results from a pelvic ultrasound and thryroid blood test. Anyone have similar experience??? Any info would be great. I do not go back to the dr for 2 weeks and I worry alot.

Are there any sudden signs and symptoms with brain tumor?

My Grandmother went to the hospital because she has suddenly started to hallucinating and is very confused and is very dazed and she is like that st different times of the day but mostly at night, it came on pretty sudden so we know that it's not a gradual thing like alzheimer, we thought it might have been a water infection at first but she doesn't have that, at first I thought it might have something to do with her diet or even worse a brain tumor, but I was told not to get any ideas until the doctors have done tests, the thing is though they have stuck her in a cancer unit and have said that they want to do some brain scans on her in a few days.. are they hiding something from us?

What are the odds that I have cancer, based on my symptoms?

On June 3rd I noticed a small bump under my skin on the left side of my neck, immediately I worried but because nothing seemed to be wrong with me. In the last week I've developed asthma like symptoms or just some awareness of not being easily able to take in a deep breath all the time. I'm not sick, haven;t been having fevers or anything but when i go to the doctor tomorrow, I don't want to takea blood test and get back results with horribel news.

Just today I was able to workout as usual, run 5 miles and lift weights. I'm a healthy 17yr old guy and am just worried.
