Brain tumor question having to do with double vision?

I am a 20 year old male and yes, i have posted many times about a brain tumor. I went to my GP and mentioned it to him and he didn't think it was anything to worry about. Today at my eye exam, i mentioned it to the optometrist who decided to do a visual field test at a later date. He checked my eyes and says everything looks fine and that the nerves in the back of my eyes are fine. The double vision i have comes and goes and when i have it, it only lasts 5 minutes. He said if it is persistent or lasts any longer i need a CT scan. Im nervous and a hypo of course so that makes it worse. I always expect the worst. What do you guys think from your own experience or expertise?

Update:

@belinda i love the answer haha. we are different and that's ok.
