Brain disease

I have been experiencing difficulty concentrating and focusing on things. I often forget recent things and sometimes even forget important tasks or directions. I also have a lot of negative thoughts and tend to think negatively about myself and my life. These problems have been getting worse recently and are affecting my daily life.

Please suggest ...i am scared

Hi Doctor, For the last 8 days, I have been experiencing a strange sensation in my head. It initially started on the left side at the back of my head, near the ear. For the past 4 days, it has changed to a feeling of heaviness or pressure, like there is some weight on that side. It is not really a headache, but I occasionally feel small, pin-like pains here and there. I have checked some of my neurological functions myself, and everything seems normal. I can move my eyes normally, walk properly, do household activities, and continue my office work without any problem. Do you think I still need a CT scan or MRI based on these symptoms? I am also quite scared about the possibility of a brain tumor/cancer. I understand that no one can rule that out without proper examination or scanning, but I wanted to know whether my symptoms alone suggest anything concerning that would require imaging. Please advise me on what I should do next.
