Hello everyone today I discovered a lump on the back of my head ... my fear for the past 4 months is a brain tumor so this is definitely not helping me.... anyone have a random lump appear

brain tumors don't present themselves as lumps. That said, you may have hit your head, you may have a lot of tension causing inflammation in the spot. If there's no pain I wouldn't worry, if there is pain, a lump on the head isn't necessarily an emergency.

No pain at all

Thats great. No pain = no problem. Now you can start to try and relax as you know nothings wrong. The more you stop caring about a brain tumor the better you'll feel. A brain tumor for 4 months would be causing a debilitating pain by now.

IP,

It could be so many benign things! The possiblilities could include a swollen gland, clogged oil duct, ingrown hair...the list goes on!

If it is not going down in a couple of days or getting worse, a quick trip to your doctor should get you the answers you need.

Until then, try not to worry.:)

It was a hive I developed more on my scalp... what could be causing them still the celexa ?

Oh that's right! You have had hives...of course!

It could be the last of the meds working their way out of your system with this reaction...

Or it could be stress, or just an unexplained case of urticaria. My mom has had several bouts of hives that she never learned the cause of...and is otherwise perfectly healthy, physically.:)
