Symptoms = nausea, dizziness, and pressure in head
Posted: 04-16-07 19:44pm

For about 5 days now, I have been feeling kind of wierd. I have had a pretty constant feeling of nausea, also kind of dizzy or light headed. I am also feeling a constant pressure as if someone is pushing in on both sides of my head. These feelings seem to get worse in the late afternoon and at night, I seem to feel ok in the morning. Any idea of what might cause these symptoms ? Thank for any advice you may have.

John

Given your previous conditions (panic attacks)& the symptoms you report (pressure in the head, nausea, dizziness and weird feeling in the afternoons and nights), you could be experiencing an anxiety disorder. But before diagnosing anxiety as the cause for these symptoms, you can request some further medical examinations such as measuring blood pressure and standard blood analyses. You may consult your primary health provider in order to request the baseline exams and for further help.
