The feeling of your head being too heavy seems to be a common CCI symptom- have you been diagnosed with CCI or are you trying to work out if it could be the issue? If you haven’t been diagnosed, @PatientD posted this info for looking at yourself at home:
‘On instability topic, here are my practical tests to check yourself. Look in mirror - is your head slightly tilted to one side, is one shoulder higher than the other, if so is the hip higher on one side than other (put hands on hips), is one leg slightly shorter than other - get friend or family to help - wear flat shoes - lie flat- have companion put your heels together. If one heel is slightly shorter than other they can see that & tell you. If you have many of these characteristics this may suggest you have instability issue. Our brains keep our eyes even with the horizon & will alter body below in order to do that.’
You could try seeing if a blood thinner helps with your head pressure symptoms? Some members have tried Plavix, Brillinta, Eliquis, Xarelto, or Diamox, & also some supplements like Creatine, Trimetazidine & Citicoline have helped…
