I have had numbness on the left side of my head for 3 days now. I have had CT's done in the past for bad Migranes (on the right side), and dizzy spells. Nothing abnormal has ever shown up.
This sensation is as if my head has fallen asleep for lack of circulation, yet it never goes away. I have some sensation of pressure but absolutely no pain.
My eyesight seems normal, and hearing is normal.
Is there anyone who has been through this and might have some ideas of what is causing it?
Thank you!

I have had pressure in the back of my head for 4 weeks straight now and today is the last straw! I don't know if it's the same though. I have had some sinus problems so that may be causing it. My doc says it's from high blood presure which I HAVE lowered so I'll check again tommorow.

I definitely feel pressure as well. The intensity seems to come and go. It's constantly in the background, and I notice it all the time. I never thought of Sinus problems - I will aks my doctor about that.
Thanks!

yeah, my doctor is kind of pissing me off. He took me to an opthamologist because he believes it's a 'migrane' well the opthamologist told me to go see a neurologist and get a brain scan, so I'm very scared as I'm only 16 and 1/2 :confused: . I just got back, it's nice to know people can relate though. Oh yeah California represent lol. (I see you'r from Oakland).

I went to my doctor, and she suggested a pinched nerve - I will see a chiropractor tommorow. Of course they also blame stress.
I hope everything is ok with your scan. Let me know.
