Wind=Head Pressure=Locked Full Ears - Brain & Nervous System Disorders Message Board

No Dr. can dx my condition. Slight wind & my head starts to feel agitation inside & then severe pressure
as if skull can't accomadate the insides. Feels like a
tremor w/ locked ears getting fuller ea. minute. Attack
can ocurr while sleeping too. Pressure becomes intense
& finally ears spasm & canals are popping wet. Xanax
seems to stop spasms but I've been suffering w/ this
for yrs. Sleep deprived & sometimes rx doesn't work.
MRI & EEG show nothing of help. Elevators & car travel
can also trigger. No Vestibular problems. Just feels
like terrible inflammation & head edema, then a crisis
feeling. Does anyone know what this might be? Many Dr.
tests. Appreciate any suggestions or just to hear from
another that has this problem.

Hi Christina, Thanks for response. Thought I was alone
w/ this condition. Still might be. I had EMG neck-
nerve test. C5 is slight pinched but that operates the
arm, hand, shoulder. What nerve are you talking about?
I know if you have stabbing pain in head, that's not
the neck. Crainial-5 (cn5) is generally the problem &
it causes temple, head, ear area to stab. Trigeminal-
Neuralgia. I have this except I get long throbbing &
fluid popping from ears when pressure finally releases.
Do you have this too? What meds help you?

hello i am not on any meds i only went to a chiro and he told me it was whiplash so are you saying that my neck is not causing my stabing pains i only get them in one spot it is usually on the left side. well if you want to view my post on this board it is under cstiffey may be it can help you. but i dont know what that nuragligia you are talking about. these pains only last a couple of seconds. they are like ice pick head aches. well any way hope things get better for you . i am not sure ***** nerves are pinced because i only went to a chiro.
