Ok well i have dizzy spell s in nervous situations and i have OCD. I just got back form a logn car ride but its a week later and my legs feel empty and liek there gonn abecome paralyzed but yet i can controll them as normal as i used to. But this really only happens when im not using them liek sittign down and stuff. When i don't think abotu ti also, i don't feel it. When i turn my head aroudn as far as i can i kinda get a dizzy thing. Im pretty sure i have a ton of anxiety over all of this and thinking i have a tumor. I feel a little twitchy. ( well kinda ) and i only get headaches when i sleep really late or sometimes i just get them. I think its been a week and thats really good for me. But man im always plugged up so much and whenever i first stand up i get this really pressure feelign in my head that lasts a couple seconds. I went to the doctor and he said it was a grwoth spurt. im only 14 so thats higly possible. ( but that was liek 5 months ago ) and i have to say i am in a huge spurt ive grown 8 inches in liek 4 months i believe. Yeah i just feel wierd soemtimes especially when im tired i feel extrmely wierd when i walk. Liek the ground oves soemtimes. And when im laying in bed when i wake up and just stare at something my eyes like pulse and move a bit when my heart beats. Hard to explain. Anyways im really active i ride my biek / motorycle and swim a lot. EDIT i added this at 1:26PM sometiems i also get goosbumbs or liek a gold chill on my leg or the left side of my face usually i alway sget them on the left side of me. But i have gotten them on the right side before.

whats up, I am the same way, I think I have a brain tumor or a anurysum all the time. I doubt you have a brain tumor. But i am not a doctor. With brain tumors the headaches are usually in the morinings and get better as the day goes along. The headaches get worse over a period of time since the brain tumor is growing. Are you vomiting,feeling nauseas. Brain tumors are pretty rare. My childhood freind had one. He had headaches alot, but we thought nothing of it. Your to young to be worrying about it. You will feel that way if you keep thinking about it. I am only 21 and wish I could live normally again. I have good weeks and bad weeks. I figure if something was wrong with me, something would have happend by now. If you think its getting worse, I would ask my doctor for a CT scan. To ease the mind. peace

hey Chicken,
I have noticed almost all your posts concern brain tumors. You might want to ask your doctor for an MRI or CT scan of your head. It may put your mind at rest and allow you to stop stressing out so much. You may be a hypochondriac, which is extreme depression of mind or spirits often centered on imaginary physical ailments. I am a victim of this sometimes as well. Alot of hypochondriacs think headaches, tingling, and other symptoms are often brain tumors. You'd be amazed if you googled hypochondriac forums what kind of posts would come up. There were pages and pages of posts about people who imagined they had brain tumors. They helped me get over alot of the problems I was having and found myself laughing at how many other people were just like me. All these symptoms I was having started disappearing too! Good luck to you.
