Felt "Pop" in my head...haven't felt right sense

Posted , 40 users are following.

Hi guys.

Ok....so about 10 day ago, I was sitting at my kid's band camp meeting.

All of a sudden, I felt a "pop" in my head. The left uper side of my head to be exact. Feaked me ou!

I didn't feel any kind of "warm sensation" like blood pouring over my brain, or, any type of "fizzle" afterwards. It mostly just freaked me out, and then I started to "not feel right". So I sat there waiting for something bad to happen, but hoping it wouldn't!

Then, a few minutes later, another "pop" in my head around the same area. Started to REALLY freak out then! I was sure I was a goner!

I emediately got up and went to the car and we left and came home.

I laid down and tried to sleep it off.

   Sense then, I've been having that "not right" feeing in my head.

Slight headache that seems to constantly come and go, even with taking Ibuprohpen. I can't seem to shake it, and the feeling of "not feeling right" seems to be permanent, and won't go away.

I fear it could be a brain tumor, or something, starting to show itseflf.

I plan to go to the Dr tomorrow to try and get him to send me for a CT scan or something. 

So, to sum this up....

*2 "pops" in my upper left head.

*Slight come and go constant headache.

*Constant "something's not right" feeling.

Thank you!!

Ricky

      Hi Bart.

         I was down right freaked out also!

      But, the fear eventually faded away after a week or two.

      I'm still not sure what it was, but it certainly had me shaken up.

      I didn't have any other symptoms after it happened, other than my anxiety getting the best of me, and that feels like a serious symptom all by itself.

      I went to the Dr a few days later just to be sure, and was told that if nothing bad happened right after the "pop", then there's really nothing to worry about. Usually, if a warm flowing sensation happens right after something like this, then it's pretty serious, and you'll soon know if it's for real and there's little you can do. But, if you're still round to read this, then I'm sure it's similar to what happened to me.

      Anxiety is a real thing and makes living hard sometimes. And it's just something we have to deal with on a case by case basis. Sometimes it's a very scary thing...other times it's just a big pain in the ass!

      Hope this helps ease your mind!

      I had the same thing happen to me. I remember I was listening to music after having a argument with my girlfriend. I was angry. I heard a pop in my head. Then felt a burning sensation and pressure in my head then I'd have cold sweats and have to be alone to calm myself down. I feel distant to reality to this day and that happen about nine ten years ago. Had a Cat scan. Doctors just lazily dismiss it as anxiety. I've gotten use to living with it but it's miserable, I just want to feel normal again. I feel distant from myself and its like I have mental blocks. I feel crazy when I talk about it because it's hard to explain. I'd give anything in the world just to feel normal again

    I had something similar when I was asleep and it woke me up. I had it a few times, but it went away on its own, I think it may have been exploding head syndrome, but I don’t know if it is what you had. Did you get a scan?
