I get mine from yawning. If I'm not paying attention and yawn without tensing my body, something moves and presses on something and sets off that cascade you described.
I've tried to describe them as burners or stingers (which sports med docs understand) and even spoke to neurosurgeon about them, but everyone blows it off like it's a minor musculoskeletal issue. Just once I'd like to see them have a crazy attack like that and tell me it's minor. |
Yawning issues were one of my first symptoms. I would start yawning at night and then something would happen where my eyes would pour tears and the yawning would not stop. It would go like 30 times with heart palps and weird electric surges in my spine/ torso up through neck and head. From what I gather this is vagus nerve damage?
