Getting Head Rushes, Fell Pressure On Head And Shooting Pain In Temple. Cause?

I have been getting what i refer to as Head rushes. I stand up and the pressure in my head feels like it is going to explode. but then quickly levels back out. Secondly, I have noticed that from time to time i get a sharp shooting pain in the right temple and feels like a vein wanting to bust. Everyone keeps telling me that you can't feel that. Well Im not imagining it so I have no clue.

Neurologist,  's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Your symptoms are suggestive of episodic cephalalgias. These are pains of neural origin, mostly arising from the scalp nerves.
You would benefit from medications such as carbamazepine.

I hope it helps.

Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
