    Exclamation Pressure and pulse in head/body

    Does anyone get a feeling of pressure in the head and body along with a feeling of a strong pulse under the scalp?

    There is high atmoshperic pressure here today (a clear autumn day) - I wonder if that contributes to this feeling?

    Grateful for any responses.

    Hi SpringBlossom,

    I get a strong pulse in my head whenever I bend over or at night when all is quiet and I'm trying to go to sleep and it just drives me crazy. I thought at first it was my heart beating really fast but when I put my hand over my heart it is okay then I feel my pulse and it is going very very fast. When we have atmospheric pressure I get headaches and my pulse goes nuts then too so perhaps the two are connected. I hope you feel better soon.

    Take care,

    Laura

    Stress increases blood pressure and when we have anxiety (health) we are more likely to notice things we haven't before in our body. It used to drive me daft that I could feeling my pulse strong in my head esp when I was trying to sleep. As my anxiety has decreased I no longer notice it.

    I get sudden feelings of pressure in my head sometimes...usually when my neck is all tense and sore from being anxious...or when im congested.

    I have this really bad lately. My GP thinks it's nothing but I feel my pulse in my body and in my scalp/head - very worrying.
