I have had like a zap feeling in my head it comes as quickly as it goes, I havent had it for about two months and when I am stressed it comes back it is very scary my doctor says it doesnt sound serious, I still worry
get a 2nd opinion then. It could put your mind at ease (no pun intended) or the new Doc may know what (if naything) is causing this headache...and may be able to suggest treatment or a course of action to alleviate the problem. Make sure you tell him hwo owrried/stressed you are about this. I would say tho...if you know stress is a cause, then you really SHOULD get it checked out, as the worry may well bring on another 'attack'.
Hi, Just a note: I used to get these too a few years ago and at one point, a number of scary 'zap' feelings within 15 minutes or so. The worst ones used to radiate down the back of my neck as well. I didn't go to a doctor and the sensations just ceased after around 2 months. Hope it's the same with you.
I get that sometimes running down one side of the back of my head and down my neck. It feels like something has snapped or twanged (painfully!) and then it often tingles in that area for a few seconds after. I don't know what it is but it's happened a few times over the past year. I think it's just a muscle thing that you feel through your head but I'm no doctor.
