Could this be Cancer and/or Depression?

In the past 2 years I have been suffering from server headaches and feelings of depression. Atypical Depression is something that I have suffered from in the past and still fighting through it today. But even at that, things are just getting more and more painful. The headaches that I’ve been facing these days are terrible. I’ve been hearing squeaky noises in my right ear and at the same time feeling that same squeaky feeling. There is a spot a little bit below my right ear that hurts very badly whenever I touch it. If I scratch that area or slightly put some pressure on that area it hurts like crazy, like someone is beating the back of my brain with a screw. I get dizzy, sick to my stomach and even neck pain sometimes. I have no idea what is going on with me, but I am absolutely scared to go to the doctor. I know my mother suffered from brain tumor a while back and had to have brain surgery. It’s just always been a thought that has gone through my mind a few times. So I’m wondering could it be cancer or depression.

As scary as it is I would see a doctor just to make sure its nothing serious.Dont you think living in this uncertainty is worse then finding out or even possibly finding out too late? wish you the best! lily
