Hi My husband has crohns disease and recently had infliximab to help treat his condition. his doctor thinks that he may have had a thunder clap headache and we are waiting on ct results. he has "funny turns" a few times every day where he says that he feels like he is wearing a hat, his head is tight and v warm, his vision is blurred and he feels like he could pass out, but hasnt so far. I am v worried could this be linked to his medication? or something different? also could it be anxiety?

Hello,
Possible causes are a cluster headache or a tension headache which may present band like feeling around the head. Other possibilities like a subarachnoid bleed or raised intracranial pressure etcetera. Until the examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
