Had a weird feeling in my head for a few seconds.i had this once before months ago.is it a brain zap or dizziness? can stress and anxiety cause it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No way to know: It isn't reasonable to expect every transient symptom to have an exact precise explanation. Any answer would be an educated guess only. What it DOESN'T sound like is dangerous or worrisome so far. If it isn't any better or worse after 1-3 yr, it probably is nothing to worry about. But the person to listen to closest is the doctor who knows you personally. P.S. "Brain zap" is meaningless medically.
