Who’s pushing down in my head and shoulders?

Do any of you ladies experience the weirdest sensation of downward pressure on your head, neck and shoulders? It may or may not accompany the off balance feeling.

    is the pushing down pressure feeling constant? is it daily? is it severe or painful? do you have other symptoms? many people going thought menopause suffer from headache/migraine. Tension headache may give a pressure like felling in the head. But you should be a doctor to make sure every thing is ok.

      No its not constant and its not pain, I could have it for a few hours one day and then it could disappear for weeks or months. I actually hadnt had it for a couple of years and its returned. Doctors look at me like Im crazy when I described it. Ive been to check out more than once over the years.

    I have had that at various times. It's very alarming. Have had so many symptoms- chalk them up to perimenopause. It's a scary time. Hope you're doing ok.
