Ive suddenly felt a rush of blood/pressure on my head and it felt uncomfortable. it lasted 15/20 seconds, i was laying down. what can cause this?

Probably not serious: This could have been a sign that your blood pressure is high, or could have just been a temporary feeling of anxiety, etc. If you aren't having any other symptoms, and your blood pressure is normal, I wouldn't worry too much about it unless it keeps happening. If so, schedule an appointment with your Family Doctor. Stay well.
