weird head sensations
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi Everyone!
I'm a new member and hoping someone can relate to me and help me out with these weird heavy head sensations. I had vertigo in 2019 and haven't had a period since. My vertigo was confirmed as BPPV in my right ear. However, ever since then I get a heavy head pressure feeling on the bridge of my nose right where my forehead starts. I have had several dr visits and a CT scan. Everything comes back normal. I feel terrible and as this brings on waves of wooziness along with an elevator floor drop feeling in my head.
I'm not sure if its anxiety, hormones, tension headaches, migraines?
I went to chiro for several months for adjustments and that didn't help either.
Any thoughts?

Last month i had the weird head feeling, hard to explain. Also sinus pressure. As far as feeling the elevator floor drop, it was one of the first symptoms i had when i entered peri 4 yrs ago. Haven't felt them since thank God. Don't worry this too will pass. Just try to take it easy and try to eliminate any stress. Drink water, eat healthy and take vitamins. Take care Hugs

oh my goodness i thought id wrote your post, you describes exactly how i am. Its so hard to describe the heavy head, sort of pressure in head feeling and i often have the lift drop feeling, it use to terrify me at first but now im more use to it. i get dizziness and feel off balance most days.
if im standing for just a little while i feel i will fall forward, its made me a bit of a hermit. im trying to drink more water and be less stressed but im a born worrier so that's hard for me.
sending you a comforting hug

Does your neck or jaw ache? Cervical (neck) degeneration (it's just age related) can lead to headaches/heavy head and TMD can also cause these (yes, even vertigo) especially if you notice discomfort in your ears too (the jaw joints are right by your ears). Perhaps consider seeing a dentist/oral surgeon and/or an orthopedic specialist?
I wrote a somewhat related post awhile back; perhaps you might find it helpful:
