Question 9

why do i feel so much pressure in my head when laying on my back?

Accepted Answer

Because...: When you lay down, more blood is shunted to areas that receive less when you are standing.  This is one reason for coughing at night, as blood reaches the upper lobes of the lung, much more so than standing or sitting during the day.  If your blood pressure is low, this phenomena would be more likely.  Talk to your primary care doctor! good luck.

Accepted Answer

Might be migraines.: There are many causes for migraines, from eating foods like chocolate to drinking wine to exposure to light to being upset to much more.  These are often associated with dizziness, visual changes, and nausea.  Your lying down might be a trigger for them.  I would say first to try  pain relievers that you normally use designed for migraines, and if they don't work, see your doctor for more work-up.
