Thank you so much, Mark. This is reassuring. Please see my answers below.

This question is spot on: now that you mention it, I realize that these events are always accompanied by a pretty bad nightmare (e.g., a fearful situation).

Not really. It is more an itching/irritation sensation (probably reinforced by the scratching).

Thanks for the suggestion. Would you have any tip or advice on how to restore the blood flow, besides the usual recommendations that you give regarding neck posture?

I think I'll sleep with latex gloves, or perhaps even a swimming cap to prevent myself from scratching the itchy spots. PCS makes you do very weird things
