Suggest Remedy For Headache,breathing Problem And Severe Heart Palpitations
24 male, I keep getting these wierd feelings in my head. The best way to explain it is if a blown speaker or gritting teeth had replaced a headache. I know its wierd but I ve never had any sensation like this. In addition it s very present when I m tired and when I try to sleep sometimes I catch myself not breathing or getting severe heart palpatations. Any idea whats happening to me?

Hi,
I carefully passed through your question and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to anxiety. Other possible causes to consider would be complex epilepsy seizures or a cardiac arrhythmia. For this reason, I would recommend performing further tests to investigate for the possible underlying causes:
- a resting ECG
- an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring would help examine your heart rhythm trends for a prolonged time
- thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid dysfunction
- an EEG to investigate for seizures
If all the above tests result normal, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your complaints.
Hope you will find this answer helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Best wishes,
Dr. Iliri
