Headache and swooshing when sleeping
 

I awake at night several times a week with a severe headache and can hear a loud swooshing sound in my head. When I close my eyes tightly the sound slightly diminishes each time I close my eyes until it is a mild swooshing sound. I have had an MRI and they said they could see nothing wrong. The headaches are so severe they wake me from a deep sleep. I am at a loss. Anyone experience something similar or have a clue what could be happening to me?

Hello islandbound,

take care there.

have you had a head injury

When I was a young girl I was was hit in the temple and knocked unconscious, but nothing since then besides the occasional small every day stuff like hitting your head when you get in the car. I have had these symptoms for only about a 8 to 10 months.

why don't you throw your question in the traumatic brain injury room anyway and let them know how long ago the injury was even if it was years ago and let them know your symptoms?even if it is not from the head injury people in there are knowledgeable about things about the head

Here's the link to the forum that markneil has suggested.

Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Concussion Syndrome Forum

Do you have any other symptoms at all, even if you think they are unrelated, they might be related?

Desk job, repetitive motion, any arm, hand or wrist problems, back or neck strain?

I had whooshing when my neck muscles were in severe spasms due to RSI/TOS work injury.

I had that before but I had a head injury and that's what I'm thinking it's from I get bad head aches and pains and stuff like that I was told I have post concussion syndrome so that could be what you are facing! Rest and low activity is what they say to do...
