Head pressure is ruining my life

Have experienced all of the above over the past 40 years almost in cycles, but overlapping - complicated by back problems and sciatica. Another factor to consider: what elevation are you? I had been living at 9300 ft elevation in the Rocky Mountains but after 6 yrs of hypoxia, head pressure, numbness, and erratic blood pressure, moved to 5100 ft elevation and was doing much better for a couple of months but am now dealing with pressure, numbness, and fatigue. Had a Stealth Brain Scan this morning (on Easter Sunday!!!) to see what's going on "upstairs."

Please let us know what the result was of the scan. I also have the head issues combined with back and leg problems and I feel they are related; my symptoms wax and wane over the day and also over longer periods of time but they always get worse or less worse at the same time. I tend to wake up at 4.30AM and right after that it feels like hot liquid is running down my legs to the soles of my feet, and at the same time my head starts pounding. After that I can't get back to sleep.

Altitude is no factor in my case but season/weather is, it's always worse from October till May (cold, damp, windy, gray skies for days in a row).
