What Causes Head Rush When I Stand Up?
Hi - for the past few weeks or so, I have been occasionally experiencing a kind of head rush - when I stand up, or look up, I will feel my heart beat in my head face. My blood pressure has been a tad high but consistent for the past several years (130/92, for example). I am overweight, and have been on anti-depressants for 16 years - no med changes or other changes....nothing going on in my personal life which is causing straine. Should I be concerned?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
This could be happening because of your emotional stress, you have to control your thoughts, try to forget the symptoms, this will come around, no need to worry about it, and if this does not then just for safe side this would require some investigation, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
