Pressure in head; floaters; lack of concentration

Bro I m also suffering from the same symptoms you have been suffering .From 2 months I don't know what to do. I have gone to 3 doc for check up everyone says that it is anxiety.But I feel like I should kill myself.

Anyone solved this issue or had any luck getting answers. I'm suffering from very similar problems. I've resorted to googling everything possible because numerous Drs cannot find any problems. Just happen to run across this thread.

I would advise to get tested for Lyme disease as it can cause most all of these issues. No guarantee but it's a thought

Hi there,

I am 39 and from the UK and have had head fog and poor concentration and eye floaters for the past 2 years now.

It came on few months after a bad bout of IBS . After the head fog started, I got lots of aches and pains in my body and severe fatigue and depression. I upped my dosage of anti depressants and all symptoms except head fog and eye floaters went away.

I'm looking at things like hypertension and the swelling of the hypothalamus of the brain, as per research.

Yes it's anxiety. I had it for few months but now i'm fine. There's only one thing you need to do to get rid of it and that is getting yourself busy. Stay with friends all the time, Don't overthink, distract yourself. Buy a PlayStation or something..

Anxiety?!?!? Antidepressants? People, we talk about constant floaters and pressure in head. This is vascular problem! Or eye pressure problem. You might get yourself calm, or with friends, but the f..... floaters are there, stay there, and will be there forever, making you hate looking at blue sky! Nobody diagnosed successfully my problem for years, I only know that following the pressure in head and the eye migraine, I've got and eye pressure and light leaking on the far eye periphery on the retina. So all is there now, having drops for the eye pressure, the head still booms time to time, floaters are still there. So I used to live like this and trying to avoid seeing the little sh**s in my eyes. So check carefully your eyes on good specialist. At least you might stop new little sh**s from popping in the vision field.

25yo F here. I have been experiencing many of the same symptoms since the end of October. Constant black floaters in my eyes and blurry vision, headache that changes location and varies in intensity but it always present, mostly throbbing in my temples and back of my head, dizziness, confusion, memory loss. I've also been experiencing a lot of heart palpitation, but I think that may be from the stress all of this is causing. I've seen my PCP numerous times, neurologists, ophthalmologists, and endocrinologists, all of which can't tell me why this is happening. I had a MRI/MRA done of my head and neck and all it showed were mild signs of IIH (thinning of optic discs, partially empty sella, and narrowing of the dural venous sinuses), so they did a LP and my opening pressure was 18.5 which isn't really high enough for them to definitively say IIH. They drained 10cc of CSF and typically with IIH that will alleviate symptoms, but for me it didn't. My lab work is always relatively normal, but my ESR and CRP are always slightly elevated, so obviously there's inflammation somewhere. I had a chiropractic neck adjustment for the first time right before this started and I can't help but wonder if that could have caused it. The pain most certainly involves my neck and sometimes it feels like my neck is so weak and my head is so heavy I can barely hold it up and I have to just lay down or I'll pass out. This is ruining my life, I'm a nurse and I've cut my hours back at work so much already but I feel like I can barely even manage the few days I do work each week. I can't go out anywhere because the lights in stores or from the sun make my vision 100x. I am scared to drive and do so only when I absolutely have to. It has sent my anxiety and panic through the roof and I'm worrying myself to death trying to figure out how to make this better so I can be functional again. Have any of you found any answers? I know this is an old post but I'm praying someone else has figured this out by now!

My symptoms started after a chiropractic neck adjustment also, I’m 27 years old. Dizzy/lightheaded, ears mildly ring, vision feels so odd, new floaters I’ve never had before. I’ve had CT, MRI, saw an ENT, had VNG test, blood work, now seeing a neurologist. I honestly think this is something to do with my neck.

i have the same symptoms exactly since five years ago, the last year i found that my sinuses is thick after ct scan ,and chronic muscles spasm due to anxiety , muscles spasm is the main reason in neck and head pressure , low concentration and fatigue.
i refused to back to antidepression medications due to its side effects and now i use muscle relaxant which contain paracetamol or ibuprofen...and hard massage to head,neck and jaw muscles + being calm and relax as much as i could

I am having the same exact issue did you ever figure it out? please help

THANK YOU! WTF are docs putting ppl on antianxiety meds and sh*t WTF???

All of you with the head pressure, "buzzers" , threadlike "strings" under your skin, painful heartbeat (membranes around your heart), twisting face sensation, (that's your sinus membranes) seeing stars, "malaria sweating/shaking spells" , exploding head sensation (membranes around your skull), temporary paralysis, athletes foot like rashes anywhere, excessive burping.

You're not crazy. Get this book and start here. The Yeast Connection - Crook, MD
Read and consider what it says. If your symptoms get worse initially.... Celebrate! You're finally on to something!
You'll take it from there. If you're as sick as I was, no doctor will be able to stop you from getting well from this point. You'll figure the rest out on your own.

Don't do it. Of course you are anxious, you're anxious about being sick like any sane person would be!Don't let them discourage you. You don't show up on their paint by numbers tests... just means you haven't found the answer or the right doctor yet. You will. Keep digging. I got my first break in the form of a miracle when I was down to what I figured was about all I could take. A book on a shelf with a hundred other books plucked "randomly" from the shelf by my dutiful panic stricken wife.... The Yeast Connection Dr. Crook MD. No.. . not the ending of my troubles but the beginning of real understanding, confidence, hope, and a solution, but almost 20 years later I'm still celebrating that day, the first in a string of Miracles. Keep praying or start, Stop praying long enough to listen, keep the faith or pray for it, then expect miracles as soon as you have been made ready to notice them. Then from there it really gets weird!! I can't promise anything on the medical part, but please look into that book. Trouble shoot your thing, like broken toaster. Remove what's making you sick and you can get well.


Sounds like you're almost there, congrats it took me 2 years to get beat down to where it sounds like you are.
Now don't give up, keep on.. and get better.
I know others who have gotten better too...unfortunately I know of some that did give up.
Don't give up, don't ever give up...Now THAT would be crazy.

Hey there, I thought I would chime in. Just curious if you got checked for parasites? I seen a video on YouTube with Paul Chek ( just type in Paul Chek Parasites). He mentioned something about sweating lots in the middle of the night if you have parasites along with list of other symptoms.

I'm dealing with eye floaters/numbness or pressure in the head, along with very low energy and mood. I have had a lot of tests done and still can't figure it out....

See a chiropractor, you may have compression and degenerative discs in your neck! It happened to me... stay strong.
