I had exactly the same sensations, and I figured mine out. It was stress related, but not the regular stress as we know it, but the subconscious stress.
Here is what I have done.
1. Eliminated sugar and caffeine from my life all together.
2. Starting running every single day for 20 minutes or so, you can do other forms of exercise.
3. Started to follow a proper strict sleep cycle with at least 8 hrs of sleep a night.
In my scenario, I had a very specific action that I was doing that was triggering the condition when stressed out - reading something on a computer screen with white background for hours. I stopped doing that and started either read books or printing things out. I am a programmer, so computers is my job, but when programming, you don't read nearly as much, so I am happy now and haven't had this happening in 2 months.
I suffered from all these symptoms for about 2 months, then I finally received a tiny electrical wave (shock) from my pacemaker delivered to my heart, and I instantly felt fine again.
I am only 18 years old, but I highly suggest seeing a cardiologist and asking if there is some way to deliver a small shock to your heart, as this could be the problem, as it was for me

Hi, I have been suffering with the same issues as you for 10 months now. Mine also started with a flu like virus. (test at drs office came up negative for flu at the time) I had an incredibly high fever 105.7 for 2 days with a fever over 102 for the other 4 I was sick. The last few days I was sick I started getting this weird feeling like I couldn't see right, something just felt "off".I felt like I was always buzzed or something. I thought I was going to die.. I slowly got better from whatever I had, but the drunk feeling never went away. That was last November, now it's almost October and I feel like this still. It's constant. Have you gotten any leads as to what it may be? Thanks! :)
no I was fine before that freak flu. my problem resembles MS a lot, although it seems to be regressing spontaneously well I hope so.
for me it started with some infection, still don't know what. It might have been in the air. I didn't even notice at first it gives almost no symptoms of a flu. then followed partial paralysis of the limbs, confusion, lethargy, lack of memory, slight loss of vision, all regressed but not completely so far.. in 2010 I had a similar thing maybe I had this really annoying pressure on top of the brain and brain-zaps like pins in the head that would prevent me from doing anything. also stiff hands and lack of fluidity in movements. also then it had followed to gastroenteritis, high ESR and WBC.
if you noticed they just posted a new discussion about unexplained dizziness, nausea, fainting. there was one almost identical a few hours ago.
is there anything going on with your vision? did you take full blood count, ESR, liver function tests? self-test with a simple neurological test, the Romberg's test, look it up on Youtube.
The immune disorders don't sound like a fit for me. What are your symptoms?
I'm not thinking of collective poisoning you would get 1000s of people showing the same symptoms in the same area.
I noticed many have started having problems all of a sudden after gastroenteritis and invective-like symptoms. so I was thinking of a immunological problem.
something else that I noticed, with a certain type of neurological condition, Multiple Sclerosis is that it seems to be at higher incidence for people who live closer to the magnetic poles of the Earth.

This info I've compiled for research on this topic.
I know it is overwhelming at first, but we have to figure this out fast. I think it is all connected to Acetone.
It's been longer than a year (I think) since I've noticed the first symptoms. Unusual? Don't recall anything different, but I will set aside time to trace back my steps through memory
You think I might be right about something in the air. What can you share about that.
I'm not an conspiracy theorist, but I have considered nerve agents, and certain metal particles in the air. I also have thought about chemicals like Acetone. Research ACETONE. I have noticed that smoking increases intensity with fsc cigarettes or people who smoke the FSC have a few similarities in symptoms.
Look at these and tell me what you think? Notice how it fits with diabetes, nerve damage and Carbon Dioxide Poisoning. This is why I think it is in the air.

I appreciate you concerns and effort on this. Please get back to me.
you shouldn't think that you have an irreversible damage to the brain, there are different things that can give those symptoms that are not permanent.
like you, also I and many other people have had inexplicable neurological problems recently. only browse this forum you will see many posts about dizziness, confusion, numbness in limbs etc.
I've experienced short term memory loss in particular and I've seen the same in other people.
1) forget about nerve damage for now, high bp and vitamin B deficiency.
2) bacterias in the head? brought by ticks? STD? bacterial meningitis, encephalitis, usually messes you up real bad. stiff neck, nausea, etc it is usually diagnosed with "spinal tap"
3) Liver function is easy to check. bad liver also gives yellow skin and eyes. Liver problems can give drowsiness maybe but not the other symptoms you describe.
You say there could be something wrong in the air, you might be right about that.
When did your problem begin and how? do you remember anything unusual preceding the first symptoms?
1) Nerve damage, due to high bp and/or critical sugar imbalance (due to any reason), if thats the case please ask your doctor how he/she can diagnose if thats the case, if he/she fails to support in the right direction, take yourself some over the counter B-Complex, take it for few months and your nerve damages should slowly heal and you should feel better, if nerve damage is something which caused those burning pains, then you should start feeling better the time you start taking B-complex.
2) Bacterias in your head.. sounds very interesting, the bacterias can bore deep inside your skull muscles damaging the network of veins, if that's the case then someone should be able to confirm it for you and prescribe you right antibiotics or similar solution, you should start feeling better if it was deep rooted bacteria which was producing inflammation around your veins.
3) Liver issues, if liver is failing to provide the glucose as/when brain needs it, your brain feels choked and creates issues which are even hard to explain let alone treat. At that point your brain is triggering panic in your body.
Any/All of the above tips could help you move in towards the solution, no promises but may help you ask your physician to get diagnosed with any of these issues which might lead to burning head aches.
I feel such kind of headaches would be reported by the people who were exposed to high BP incidents and or Sugar imbalance issues in their lives which left the critical veins damaged or inflamed, Time should heal it if you do not stress and take sufficient of B-complex.
These are possible solutions
