A member asked:

Blood test normal. nuero exam normal. diangosis sinusitis and allergic rhinitis. still feel off balance and forehead pressure. should i rule out brain tumor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I have already answe: Your question has been answered. You can definitely wait for 1, 2 or 3 weeks in which case your sinus related symptoms will resolve. But if you had anything like a brain tumor the symptoms will get worse in a few weeks. You have both choices...Wait and watch or act sooner than later. Choice is yours!
