Think I might have asked this before
but having a bad time at moment so here goes.
Every night when I go to bed as I start to drift off to sleep I get a sensation in my head that feels as if my head has fallen down a liftshaft. There is NO bodily movement - it is not a hypnic jerk. I usually get this sensation a couple of times then fall asleep but I can get episodes where it just won't stop and I cannot get any sleep.
All Drs look totally flummoxed and have come up with anything from a sleep disorder to anxiety to my bad neck to meno symptom. I have had it on and off for past 6 years.
If I get a physical symptom that scares me for example last night I woke at 3amand as I tuned over got bad vertigo for 20 mins and got into a right old panic about it well that will then trigger the weird sensations big time and it can be days before they settle down.
I have to resort to sleeping pills at times.
So can anyone relate to this really weird symptom or is it just another one of my weird symptoms?
