Brain tumors cause swelling and thus a "mass" effect on adjacent tissue. A good neurologic exam and history by a physician will reveal most abnormalities and if the need for more expensive imaging studies exists. I get the impression you feel you have a brain tumor because you don't feel well, and other problems you have thought of have been ruled out. I believe you would have already been to a doctor if you had obvious neurological deficits.
This forum is not the place to try and diagnose your own problems as the opinions may come from people who are doctors or from people with no medical backround whatsoever, so you don't know how much faith to put in them.
If you feel something major is wrong, spend the money for an eval from your family doc. He will tell you if he thinks an expensive test is needed or not. Don't consign your health to a message board.
