Feeling odd head sensation, lightheaded

Posted , 2 users are following.

hi , I’m 40 years old male with this odd head sensation for 3 years , i get this weird spells all day almost like being lightheaded but not dizzy , i have random head rush like zaps hard to explain also i feel nausea in my stomach . my ears have been ringing non stop im not sure if its from going to concerts or what , I’ve had MRI , CT Scans on Brain, Neck I’ve been to Cardiologist I’ve had numerous blood work done I’ve been to ent and nothing has been detected , it boiled down to stress and possibly anxiety which I never had before , the only thing I had was low vitamin D which they put me on 50000 UI per week but that was not the diagnostic I was looking for , over all I’m healthy and no medical issues besides 5 Years ago my neck got swollen pretty bad ( lymph nodes) the doctors thought it was possibly lymphoma but after biopsy and numerous test it wasnt , Anyway long story short I wonder if anyone can help me or have similar symptoms I’m not sure if this is an anxiety which I’m having hard to believe that can cause symptoms like this

    Sudden dips in blood pressure? you could get yourself a BP machine to use at home and when you feel weird and lightheaded give yourself a BP check.

    Do you drink plenty? Are you dehydrated? Do you have a diet high in sugar or salt?

    Did you ever get a diagnosis on your swollen lymph glands?

    Are you taking any medication, from the doctor or stuff you have bought yourself?

    Yes, these symptoms can also be due to anxiety.
