    Hi Mandie; i think it's probably all part of the stress response because you've had a tough time recently.. Did you sleep better last night ?? Juanna

    Hi

    Yes i did thank you. I had about 7 hours which is a good nites sleep for me.

    I felt quite good this morning, then out of the blue i got thsis head shiver.

    It could be cause i have to drive down to boyfriends now and its an hour journey.

    Im not frightened of driving but i did have trouble with car last week so may im inwardly panicking

    love mandie

    See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_zaps
    and here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_head_syndrome

    I know the names sound alarming but it doesn't seem to be anything to be concerned about, so please don't worry.

    A lot of people experience these type of spasms. I've had them off and on for years with no increase or worsening in severity. I also get muscle spasms too when I'm dropping off to sleep sometimes and it feels as if my entire body just lifts up off the bed by several inches. Very odd but again nothing really to be overly concerned by as far as I've been able to tell.

    Hope this helps mandie.

    Hi mandie
    I don't know if this is the same as what you described but I get a kind of goosebumps feeling spreading over one side of my head. Had it a few times recently and worried a bit about it but I'm sure it's all to do with anxiety as have also experienced a rise in health anxiety symptoms.
    Hope you are feeling better now

    Hi,

    I get this too. It starts off in my head but seems to move down over my body - very bizarre!!

    Hey.
    I get this too! It's very random and I can't relate it to anything specific. I'd describe it like a little rush of tingles either on one side of my head or sometimes all over, it lasts for something like 5-10 seconds and might just happen once or a few times in a row.

    I just posted almost the exact same thing! For some reason when I searched the topic, yours didn't show up until I already posted it! But yes, I've had the same thing happen to me. I was starting to convince myself that it was a problem with my blood pressure up until everybody here reassured me that it's good old anxiety again!
