Worst one yet

[sck]

okay so here are my current symptoms.... Dizziness almost constant
pressure in face (behind nose) and temple
random head pains
pins and needles in face and temple
I went to a&e yesterday in a total panic. They drew blood (normal) took bp (normal) and a doctor did a neurological exam (reflexes, weakness, follow finger so on) his exam lasted 20 mins or so. He said he was sure there was nothing bad going on since all those tests were normal. But here I am today still with all symptoms and still in a total panic.

Ps it's not sinus, no drainage
I do suffer tmjd

I do suffer tmjd

And your symptoms are consistent with that, exasperated by anxiety symptoms.

Positive thoughts

I'm not sure... I've had tmjd for around 6 months. It's always been pain in the joint rather than this pressure in the temple and face

So what was the doctor’s theory?

[sck]

didn't have a theory. They know I suffer from anxiety so they tend to lean towards stress and tension.

[jojo2316]

Which could indeed account for all the above symptoms....
And what is YOUR theory?

[sck]

catastrophic theories. Brain tumour, or something equally sinister

[BlueIris]

For what it's worth, this really does sound like a tension issue to me.

oh if only I could convince myself .... my anxiety/panic hasn't been this bad for a long time
