Hello,
I haven't posted on here for ages, which I guess is good, but currently going through some head problems and a little concerned.
Yesterday when I was out shopping I felt a shooting zap pain in my head and went very light headed, then I had a pressure like headache in my head and kept feeling like I was going to black out.
I went to A&E and they asked me a bunch of questions, checked my eyes and she said it was most likely down to stress and that nothing pointed towards anything serious.
Today I still have the feeling of pressure in my head and neck, not quite a headache, just very uncomfortable.
Also my left eye is having trouble focusing. I'm currently taking eye drops which have blurriness as a temporary side effect but this seems to be sticking around.
I've recently had a full eye exam, blood pressure checked, urine, etc etc and had general blood tests about a month ago and everything has been normal.
Just a bit concerned about my head and eyes, as the sudden zapping pain was horrible.
Anyone been through similar?
I'm going to stop the eye drops for now and see if my eye feels more normal. I already suffer from Visual Snow and have a slight astigmatism in my eye, so that could be causing the blurriness
Any thoughts?
Sorry for the waffle!
I'm probably going to go to my Dr next week if I'm still having problems.
Thanks
