Question : I have felt intermittent pressure near my right temple area. Had a normal mri 9w and w/o contrast 4 mos ago. No other symptoms. Would it be possible to develop a brain tumor in that short a time?

Brief Answer:
It is unlikely

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

The symptoms of brain tumor are progressively worsening headaches usually in early morning, vomiting, vertigo, and sometimes seizures. Your symptoms do not corroborate with it. Moreover a CT done 4 month ago was normal, so it is highly unlikely you have develop a tumor rapidly.

Feel free to ask further questions. Thanks.
