Hi 3240

I haven't taken my blood pressure but when my legs are bad it affects my head.

Anytime you're in pain, your blood pressure goes up. When your blood pressure is up it can also give you a headache.

Although I don't experience this, can I chime in with a similar (?) experience that might help?

I feel weak all over immediately after feeling a really strong emotion. Although I'm talking things like laughter and anger, strong physical reactions could maybe have the same effect. My hypothesis here is that the brain becomes so caught up in what you're experiencing as to "neglect" everything else.
