head pressure

Question

Hi im 25yrs old and a mother of a 7yr old.In the past couple of years i've experienced differen recurrent symptoms like palpitations,tightness on my chest, shortnes of breath, and a tingling feeling on my face. But recently i've experienced what i can describe as pressure on the top of my head, when it comes on is not like a headache is just this heaviness at the top of my brain i also get this hot feeling on it along with dizzines. I start getting this feeling that is similar to the way you feel when you drink alcohol and some times my hands get shaky and my eyelids begin tingling too. It really worries me because I dont know why its happening. I hope someone can tell me why i might be experiencing this symptoms.

DO you have any numbness and tingling in your fingers, face or toes or problems thinking or remembering? 

I have been experiencing numbness(it comes and goes) along with heart palpitations, shortness of breath and memory loss & brain fog. I also have severe head pressure just like you are feeling. it is not bad in the morning but progresses throughout the day. Sometimes I have a pain in the left side of my head. I am thinking of being tested for Lyme because i had a bout of unexplained low grade fever (still have it today), fatigue (still) and muscle aches back 9 years ago. I have been having problems ever since to include bowel, itching, eye problems, irritability etc (much more). All test have been normal, have been to heart dr, several ent, several pcp, derm dr but nothing is ever found. 

Good luck to you, Dana

It does sound a lot like anxiety/depression/stress.  Try self-help measures (meditation, good breathing, eating and sleeping well, excersise, music, be kind to yourself) but if your life is being ruled by worry then be sure to see your doctor.
Good luck.  Try the mental health board to see how common your symptoms are.
