hi crispy, exactly the same i hate it.
how do you cope do you take any medication ?
i am on the same boat as you and dont know except that if you have been cleared by more than one doctor i would suggest seeing psychiatrist doctor.
ive always had anxiety but it never manifested physically like this, which is why i keep thinking something is wrong with me physically
Hi Aj,
I would call it surviving rather than coping :-/ I take amitriptyline which does help to reduce the head pressure but I don’t like taking it due to side effects (excessive sweating - it’s embarrassing). The head pressure I feel seems to be behind the eyes building steadily during the day, sometimes the working day feels like climbing a mountain …
oh man can i relate. i went through that for a solid 3 months. it comes and goes now.
the only that has helped me was xanax it completely took it away.
do you also get a sort of confusion feeling when you get the head pressure ?
More than 20 doctors cardiologist psychrist check me.
The worst I have felt is the room virtually spinning like feeling drunk but I had not touched a drop of alcohol. I like using the gym and was having real trouble on placing my feet when using the treadmill which was quite disturbing.
Can’t wait until the Christmas break !
Yep! I have had ALL of those symptoms from anxiety!
- The most annoying was dizziness - felt like I was on a boat 24-7 and it lasted for like 2 months. But the most uncomfortable I’d say was the muscle tension I would get in my neck/head. It would be sooo tense and tight and last for days. I bought a heating pad and I would lay my head/neck on it after work every night. Seemed to help but during the day at work I was so uncomfortable.
Hey
so I went for an eye exam today after not getting much help from Drs about blurred vision and weird eye/head pressure.
The optician said both my eyes where in perfect health and more importantly he couldn’t see any pressure or tumour warning signs behind each eye.
He thinks blurryness is down to too much mucus and dry eye. He said he couldn’t see anything else causing it.
I know I should now be put at ease after having good blood test results and now being told there’s no issues behind my eyes, but i am still sat here stressing and feeling weird in my face and eye area thinking there’s something they have missed.
