Taking quite a cocktail of drugs for pain and neurological spasms. Oxycotin, Oxcodone, Dilopram, Neurontin, Zopitin and Sirdalud.

I assume it's one of more of these drugs, mostly at night, feel quit strong pressure building in my head, which lasts for 10 to 30 secs and eases off.

Is it dangerous? I'm a Scanner and will I take over the world someday lol

Headaches and cannot walk normal speed or too fast, if I do I will veer off to the right and even lose balance and fall.

If you take steroids, that could be a cause.... How was this diagnosed? Was it in the ER and you had a spinal tap??

At least 20 times, I notice is mostly in evenings. I went to Doctor this morning BP is 143/99. She wants me to monitor my BP twice a day for a week and she will prescribe me something next week.

Joke was in ref to movie Scanners, when the guys head blew up after being scanned.
