please help. head pressure anxiety

About 8 weeks ago now i began having terrible panic attacks that came out of the blue whilst watching tv. My symptoms included rapid,heavy heart beat, heart skipping a beat chest pains, shortness of breath, feeling as though i was about to die, feeling terrified of everything, trembling....
These panic attacks happened persistently and were eventually complicated by agraphobia  I felt as though i was constantly in a dream like state, i felt as though i couldnt cope with anything, even the thought of brushing my teeth scared the hell out of me. I was unable to do anything without my boyfriend there to help me. The doctor put me on beta blockers and after a few weeks i managed to pull myself together in time to travel Europe, a trip that my boyfriend and i had been planning for a long time.
For the first three weeks the trip went really well, only a few bouts of anxiety and panic but at the begining of week 4 i began getting very unwell. I began feeling a strange sensation inside my head, it felt as though i had a giant bubble trapped behind my eye and at the top of my skull. This feeling was soon accomponied by the feeling of intense pressure inside my head and almost like a burning pain. I began to pop my ears continusly and shook my head from side to side which made a clicking sensation in my head, this relieved the bubble for a minuite but it would always come back.  I became so scared of these symptoms that i kept feeling that i was about to have a fit or pass out and die. I started to feel really strange and really trapped!! My partner had to take me straight back to Britain where he took me to a london hospital.  After explaining my symptoms to the doctor she beggan doing some tests, reflexes, looking in my eyes, blood pressure..... She said the tests were all fine and couldnt find enough of a reason to give me a brain scan. So now im going insane!!! I have had this pressure/bubble in my head for about a week now and i cant take much more!! I cant go out, work or talk with friends, im always confused, sometimes im convinced that i cant feel parts of my face, im always so sure that im about to have a fit or hemmoridge and die also recently my scalp feels as though its burning, i cant sleep or eat, i now way about 7 stone, i cant stop moving around and twitching constantly. Its destroying my life and my partners too. Does anyone have any advice for me? I really need some help.
Oh and im a 22yr old female, i take beta blockers and sometimes diazipam. I dont really drink anymore and i dont smoke. Oh and my nose has been blocked for about 4 months and have had lots of p nasal drip.

Have you sinuses scanned. Sounds like sinus pain/pressure and your sinuses could be blocked especially since you are having nasal drip and congestion in your nose. I had a brain scan done and they scanned my sinues too to make sure they weren't clogged.
The head pressure/out of it feeling can be anxiety, I get it a lot, especially after a particulary stressful time/moment.

Hi! Yes, I know exactly what you are going thru at the moment - when I get anxious, it's mostly the weird head feelings that I get and even though I've been getting them for the past few months, I still get frightened by them as I begin to think there's something seriously wrong with me!  I've been to the docs many times with this and I eventually got beta-blockers also, which definitely did improve things but I do still get the odd feeling of panic especially at the moment as I've got a sore neck (prob from sleeping in an odd position!lol) and even THAT'S  scaring me incase it's something worse! I know what you mean about being trapped also as there was a time when I couldn't even face going into a shopping centre, supermarket etc... as I got the fuzzy head feeling and just felt so overwhelmed. Hope this helps a bit and please feel free to PM me if you want to ask anything else!  Shelley x
