A member asked:

Pressure in forehead when standing and bending. wobbly. post nasal drip making my stomach off. ct scan soon scared it's brain tumor. ease my mind plz?

Headache: Relax, the statistical odds are in your favor. The most likely cause of your symptoms is chronic sinusitis. Btw: the ct scan is also the best way to evaluate chronic sinusitis also. Good luck.
