A member asked:
Can a cardiac issue cause everyday head pressure, throbbing vessels in the back of head, and numb brain feeling? or should i stick with neurology ?

Neurologist: I see you got an echocardiogram, if negative result, and you don't have any other cardiac risk factors, and not using heart medications like isordil, (isosorbide dinitrate) i will continue with neurologist.

Yes: High blood pressure can cause those symptoms. Before going to neurology you can check your blood pressure.
