> > From what you say, you seem to have had mental health symptoms for a long time, not just recently. Am I right? Brain tumours do not cause long term mental health symptoms in isolation.... This is because, if a brain tumour was the cause of your mental health symptoms, you would have been physically very ill a long time ago.

As a rule, people with rapid onset neurological symptoms over a few weeks would usually have an MRI. If you have had mental health symptoms for several years and no neurological dysfunction, this would not usually be a reason to do an MRI.

> Well like I said im not gonna argue with you if I have a tumor or not I will just have to see and find out.

> I believe its a benign tumor (non cancerous) so it doesent spread anywhere and its just in one part of my brain in the paraventricular nucleus .

> I believe I have had this since I was 10-11 years old.... the older I got the more anxiety I got this would make sense since this mean the tumor got bigger more cells built up and pressing the CRH harder..
>
> I know gamma knife is radiotherapy . I maybe worded it wrong when I said surgery I thought you could call it a surgery since it invovles operating on a person from doctor. and I havent even told you my symtomps but here are some: blurry vision , loss of balance, headache/pressure, sometimes tinnitus to name a few..

wow my grammar is horrible... im just so tired.
