Why do I feel so bad

I have had a problem with pressure in my head for a couple of years and I have been taking 30mg Seroxat all that time. A couple of times I suddenly realised it had gone, like a miracle, and it was gone for several weeks, but it came back. Then it went off again for a few weeks but it came back of course and now I’ve had it for several weeks again. Nothing had changed, I didn’t do anything different so why is it so bad again. I’ve had tests, mri etc.

Omg, I’m exactly the same, I have been having terrible pressure in my head and it is so scary, mine come on like a rush and I sweat, I’m having a turn now, which is very unpleasant, I’m on antibiotics for suspected ear infection, but this has been going on for to long and I just want some answers. Can anxiety cause this?, I just not convinced. I’m going to ring doctors AGAIN and ask for some tests. I’m sorry your like this and I don’t have a solution for you, just hang in there and speak to your doctor, you are not alone in this, take care

Hi both, I came here today looking for people who are experiencing this , iv had the head pressure for 9 weeks and it’s pushing me over the edge so goodness knows how you’ve coped for 2 years bless you. I get a blocked sensation in my ear also, and can also get a tight jaw , I’m at the stage where iv had an eye test, monitored blood pressure and also had bloods and all are ok , I’m now doing a headache diary for 2 weeks then back to my gp, I suffer with anxiety and it has rocketed due to being concerned about the cause of this head pressure.

I just have this pushing in my head that makes me feel like I am going to faint. I feel like I need to get down on the floor and curl up in a ball.
