Brain fizzy feeling? Or other weird sensations...

Yes I get that like you can physically feel it in your eye then when you blink it clears. That’s the blotching I get now and again.

Is it. Really. Drunk people have problems with balance, see things not there and can often talk rubbish. People with severe mental problems see/hear things that aren’t there and talk what to us seems nonsense at times. So do drug addicts on occasion. All examples of brains put out of order one way or another. We have a variant balance disorder which is under the control of an irritated misfunctioning brain probably currently grossly overworked tryiing to make some sense of nonsense it’s receiving. Should we be surprised. Helen

I keep getting a brain flipping/jolting sensation and it’s probably my scariest symptom. It’s almost like there’s a washing machine inside my head and my brain is being rattled around violently. It causes me to audibly gasp sometimes and I often get a skipped heartbeat along with it. Also, several times throughout the day, my forehead and/or eyelid muscles will seize up from the immense shooting pressure so that I can’t move them. Other times the pressure will migrate to my teeth and sinuses. If only I had a pressure release valve in my head! These crazy sensations can be worse than the vertigo for me because I panic and think this can’t just be a migraine. It feels more like a seizure sometimes, and I’ve had one before, so the trauma of that doesn’t help my anxiety. Anyway, I’m really hoping my preventive med starts working soon…

My brain feels like it’s mounted in my skull with rubber bands. When I move my head, or take a step or jolt (think pothole) it feels like there is a delay between the head movement and the brain movement. Then there is the rebound when the brain snaps back and moves beyond its normal position.

I know that none of this is possible, but it’s what it feels like.

Best description yet. That’s exactly what I pictured in my head.
