Head pressure/Dizziness - Anyone else?

I am so glad you wrote this. This is me. I was fine one day and was running on my treadmill when all of a sudden I feel like im.weak in my legs dizzy ears ringing and off balance. Then I started having this weird scalp pain..I freaked many appts to er with ct scan negative ent said tmj while.only looking in my ears I was rushed out quick. Went to my internal doc several times he said anxiety. Went to neuro for mri of cervical spine mra which is for anyuersms because dr google had cleary convinced me I had one. And seeing a cardiologist today for sudden chest pain. I finally have had to give this to God! ! I tried several attempts to google and diagnose myself and yesterday I ginally heard God say let me have it. So I am. Will keep you updated and im praying for you!!

Wow crazy... do you have any pain/discomfort with your neck though? I have been told I could also have postpositional vertigo? (has to also do with my neck) some days it feels really stiff, other days its fine... so its weird. Maybe something did happen when you lifted heavy? Part of it could be your job. I know that part of it for me has to be my job. Constantly stressed out, lots of pressure put on me to get my job done at certain deadlines throughout the day. But the thing is, when you don't know what is going on with your body/symptoms of course you are going to get higher stress levels and probably develop anxiety. I don't get what doctors are talking about when they say "O you just have anxiety"... its like i"m not gonna take meds just to treat this so called anxiety... when I look anxiety up online there are over 100 symptoms. So that would mean everyone in the world has anxiety. Just doesn't make sense how people can feel this awful and they just diagnose it with that. Well I hope all goes well with your neuro and you get some answers. Let me know what you find out!

I am so thankful to find this site. I have been having head pressure, dizziness, floating feelings for years. I don't know how to explain my symptons, sometimes I can feel sudden attack or strike at my head as if it's going to make me faint, my blood test is good, ENT said is normal except I have nose sensitive. All these years I have been living with this really horrible feeling and fear of fainting everyday. I feel so hopeless and I just want to be a normal person. I see doctor almost every week because i feel like i am going to faint anytime. Because of these symptoms, i have develop anxiety and fear of dying..I hate this thinking. I always think that am i going to die today? Noone understand how i feel. Few months back I started with workout, thought of exercise can help me to be healthier. For the first few months I was alright although sometimes after exercise I feel dizzy and floating but I just try to ignore it abd blame that to nose sensitive. Yesterday it was horrified, I finished running on treadmill and suddenly felt strong head pressure for 10 seconds. I don't know why, I was terrified and floating with dizziness after that. Now I am phobia to go workout again. I am glad to have this site support that I am not alone .

Do you suffer from heaches

Hi I know it has been 2 or so years since this thread has been contributed to but I wanted to share my experience. I'm an 18yro woman and had a head injury due to fainting 2 years ago. Since then I have always had a subconscious thought/fear of fainting. Since the end of last year and throughout this year, I have had random spells of dizziness occur when I'm standing. This feeling is like something is sinking in my body as if my insides have just descended a few floors in an elevator. It usually also coincides with a change in body temp. - feeling warmer. Since then, I have been paranoid about any other out of the ordinary symptoms my body has experienced, leading me to getting tests done in hospital. ECG, MRI, urine, blood, blood pressure etc. have all been normal. Everyone said that it's just anxiety. I've also felt tingling/numbness in my hands and feet at the same time on ocassion. I have felt a tightness in my chest which I can confidently attribute to being just anxiety however. Usually when I get that sinking feeling, my interpretation of the noise of my surroundings is temporarily altered and I tend to notice/hear a ringing sound. I used to get vertigo for a year when I'd try to roll on the side that I had my head injury on. I no longer believe I get it anymore on that side, but I still refuse to sleep on it. Recently it has made a comeback, triggered by when I roll from my side to my back.

I'm tired of feeling this way and of having this fear. I constantly think back to and envy the days when my life was more normal, aside from the ocassional lightheased sensation. I have not been on any medication nor have I seen a therapist yet regarding my anxiety, and I have also not been treated for positional vertigo at any times that I've brought up that I used to/sort of still do have it. I've recently been looking into aromatherapy. I hope you have all had some sort of progress or found clarity regarding this. It's truly a horrible thing to experience and I've felt so alone until finding this forum.

Hi! I know it's been a few years since the original post, but I relate to a lot of the symptoms. I get extreme pressure/dizziness after almost every workout. Do you also feel sensitive to light? I do, and I've been thinking these episodes might be related to migraine symptoms (I used to get them a lot in the past, and these symptoms feel similar to migraine auras). I also have panic disorder so my body kind of tricks me into having a panic attack when I have these symptoms. So I really don't know if it's migraine/vertigo related or anxiety related!
