My head feels like it's going to explode!

[Bunny_Rabbit]

Hi all, I have a question that may or may not relate to the heart.

Everytime I squat down, with my head down...or if I were to try to look under my bed while my body is on my bed, it feels like my head is instantly going to explode and pop off. I think it basically just happens when my head is lower than my heart.

Does anyone else feel like this? Does anyone know why it happens? It's just such a horrible feeling.

Thanks in advance.

I had the same thing prior to my surgery. I actually passed out once after getting up too fast.

It could be a symptom of your heart problem.
I believe it is a common one.

When I told my doctor about it, he didn't seem overly concerned. It didn't appear to be out of the ordinary.

It's not the most pleasant feeling in the world, that's for certain.

Bunny,

I went to a boarding high school in the mountains of massachusetts. This is long before I new that my valve was any different then any one elses. I use to get that feeling all the time. Never new what is was though. Was it related to the valve? I'll never know. Makes me wonder though. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. martha
