When does this happen what are you doing when it starts? Your blood preswure rises and falls when you are doing certain activity's even if you don't have high pressure. I know when you are doing arobic or treadmill, or stressed it will rise and fall back to nornal. Pre menophase can cause this also. hope I helped some

Hey Happy I think I know what your talking about at least its close. I get really bad head rushes from my morning dose of riba. I feel like it rolls thru me for hours before it goes away. I can feel this from my head down to my feet...it almost makes my knees buckle.Let me know if that helps. OH the only thing I do to help that is ..again...drink ice cold water!!!

There, there honey. Sounds like you are being a delirious female. How about I prescribe some valium for your nerves????

Nerd! I thought that attitude belonged in the 50's and 60's!

Are you taking Niacin pills? That will cause a rush like you described.

Hello Happybake
Alot of times when heart is pumping fast either from exercises or from stress I get what I call the " Stupids " The poisons from my liver rush to my brain.

one day at the time

ps: this is why a person on tx needs a great support group to share these worrysome sides that we are not sure if it's tx, or anything else that we should be alarmed with.

Great support.....

I'm not 100 percent sure it the same thing I felt, but there's a major blood artery that goes through your liver to screen your blood. Damages in your liver can narrow this opening maybe you are feeling the effect. I found out I had varices the hard way. It could be also another side effect.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
