| Re: i am having pressure right across my head
I can totally relate to what you are going through. I have had constant pressure and sometimes actual shooting pain behind my eyes for a couple of months now. After CT came back normal, bloodwork normal, and antibiotics that did nothing becuz my doc thought i MIGHT have a sinus infection, my dr decided im suffering from "anxiety headaches"....somedays they are worse than others, and most times its not actually a Headache, but more just a constant annoying pressure behind my nose and eyes...gets worse if i bend forward quickly or try to exercise at the pace i used to before i started having this problem, and always gets worse when im stressed. I do have a lot going on in my life right now stresswise, and trying to cope with this throbbing pressure 24/7 doesnt help. I also tried an allergy nasal spray which did nothing. I have slightly elevated blood pressure and have that under control with medication and i am taking xanax .5 3x a day as needed. i try to ignore the pain/pressure but that doesnt really help.. i also notice the pain and tenseness radiates down my neck and sometimes into my back.........I am going to try relaxation techquines and breathing/meditation to see if that helps at all. Just so you know you're not alone and its just so frustrating becuz i want to feel "normal" and back to the way i used to a few months ago. I wish you the best in any treatment you seek out, but if you are feeling stressed and anxious, u may be suffering from the same time of anxiety headaches that i am trying to deal with. good luck to you!
