Do anyone have head pressure that feels like it on the inside of your head, I feel it mostly in the top and front, sometime its only on one side and feeels like I have two halfs of my head, Its odd to me.  I feel like I need to move my neck around when I get it.  But its causing awful fear and anxiety.

Please if anyone has this, explain yours.

Thanks

    I have had this really bad before. I had no sinus/cold symptoms except the pressure in my head and face. Also was a bit dizzy or foggy. It hurt to touch my eyebrow. I was convinced I had a brain tumor or some sort of brain eating amoeba I had just read on Facebook about. Suddenly I was drenched in sweat and hurried to my Dr. He said it was upper sinus infection. Of course I didn't believe him, but my vitals were good so I decided the antibiotics he gave me would be worth a shot. Guess what? It cleared it up in 2 days. Good luck!!

    Hi Patty, yeah I get pressure in my head too. It kind of feels like there is an elastic band on it and feels like cotton wool inside. I have been to the Dr and he said it's just another symptom of anxiety uurrrggghhhh. I have bad health anxiety and it's just so frustrating, but I just tell myself you have been checked over so many times so try and relax. You are worried about it so speak to your Dr, once any physical thing is ruled out you can then deal with the anxiety. Good luck, I wish you well.cheesygrin

    Yes, and I get bad headaches also and it goes into my neck and into my shoulders and one time down into my right arm. I kind of got concerned that time because all I could think of was a heart attack with it being in my arm.
