Hi I have had pain at the base of my skull on the right side when I exert or strain myself . This has been going on for about 4 weeks. I had a ct scan with imaging and it was negative. I have an appointment with a neuro surgeon in a few weeks but this has really taken a lot out of Me because I don t know what it is Currently taking lorazepam which helps somewhat
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. First, I would like to reassure you that your symptoms do not suggest anything serious, as your CT scan of the brain is normal. Only very small tumors may get missed on CT scan, which can be picked up on MRI brain. Lorazepam is a Chat Doctor.  There is no need to worry at present. Neurosurgery consultation and MRI brain would sort out the issue. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes,
