Burning head/scalp

Hey everyone!

I’m new here but hoping to find someone who can relate to what I’ve been going through. I never suffered from health anxiety until december of last year, and it started with heart palpitations that landed me in the hospital. Once I found out that I was ok, the anxiety went away. Fast forward to February 25, I woke up with a sinus infection, took my normal sinus meds went about my day.. went to bed that night and woke up with a horrible headache. The next day when I woke up my head was burning. It has done this off and on since that day! I went to the Dr and my blood pressure was sky high (I think because I was so anxious) so the dr is more focused on that then anything. They started me on amlodipine which makes me feel like a zombie. I have ringing ears, swelling, weakness, my face is so flushed. I don’t know if it’s the medicine or the anxiety. Anyway.. has anyone else experienced burning in their head? I’m also getting random pains and pressure. I’ve also experienced numbness in my feet! I feel like I am falling apart.

Hello, I'm new here too. I was diagnosed borderline high blood pressure in January. I have been on Amlodipine since then. The top of my head gets very hot sometimes. Even my pillow first thing in the morning is hot! It doesn't happen all the time though. I have had one day where I was dizzy, it lasted all day then next day I was fine. That's all the symptoms I have had. I would go back to the doctor if I had too many side effects.
