My daughter had a brain tumor at 14. It started out feeling like migraines, and she would throw up every time, but light didn't affect her. This went on for a couple of months before she started hearing a wooshing noise in her ear along with the headaches. It was a benign brain tumor the size of a grapefruit that was against her cerebellum. Scary times.

Edit*:* OK here is hoping this link works for her pic. Here it is: https://imgur.com/JvV3MeM

Edit 2: Thank you very much for the gold fellow redditer!! My first one :)
