Heart Beat Pounding In My Head?
Posted: 01-29-07 22:17pm

Hello

i am not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I have been having for some time now, a wooshing pounding sound inside my head. When I get up from a sitting postion a few seconds later it starts wooshing and at some moments sounds like it is coming right from my ears. My head feels like it may explode and never mind bending over to pick something up off the floor. If I get startled it does it. I hate the sound of my heart beating, it freaks me out. I have anxiety problems and have a really heard time relaxing. As well because of my anxiety my blood pressure can be a little up at the doctors office.

I was wondering if anyone else has had these symptoms and if so what is causing this to happen. Any direction would help. Thankyou for your time.

the symptoms that you are experiencing comes from your anxiety disorder. my friend used to have panic disorder and she started taking a supplement containing valerian, which helps with her condition. if u want, u can ask me and i can recommend it to you.

I'm not sure if my condition is similar to yours; in certain body positions, I can feel my heart pounding (ex. my head, hand). Sometimes I even shake/ move for a few seconds while the heart pound. And I can't control it. (See post written by me)

HI, I have EXACTLY the same issue, have you found anything? God, this is making me crazy, it gets worse sometimes, others it doesnt happen at all. It happens to me also afterI climbing stairs, but only after a relaxed walking or starting from sitting.
I normally run and even though I endure good time and speed, the sounds rarely can be heard. The other day I noticed that if the stupid whooshing and the annoying high pitched sounds begins, if I hold my breath, it stops.

Also I read in another place that if you cover your nose and blow slowly your ears feel better. Please let me know if you have found anything new? as far as I know I have a good heart (no problems from ECG) My BP also increase with stress.

Did you ever find out what it is? I have been to different doctors and a cardioligist with no answers. I have had it for years but the episodes are getting more frequent.
