Question: Hello! I am 21 and very worried about brain tumor. I have been having this super minor headache/ uncomfortableness in the back to the left of the head for the past month.

Brief Answer:
Doesn't seem like brain tumor.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

Brain tumors usually cause loss of balance, double vision, impaired vision, dizziness,etc.
The fact that you did an MRI and it had normal results there is no risk of having a brain tumor.
You can visit a neurologyst to discuss about headache.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Nerve compression possible.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
You can relay on the results of the MRI done six months ago.
The tiredness and tingling you have on your right foot may be related to a nerve issue or compressed spinal nerve.
Did your neuropsychologyst also examined your spine ?
