Anxiety and head problems

[anxietyellie]

Does anyone else have head issues and have been told that it is anxiety?  I am about tired of this constant head pressure/pain that I keep getting.  Its very weird.  I will wake up in the morning and feel ok, then about 1/2 hour later this pressure/pain will start on the left side of my head near the top.  It will seem to intensify and then lessen itself throughout the day with no real rhyme or reason to when it is worse or better.  If I ignore it and go about my business it seems to get slightly better but if I acknowledge it.. it seems to get worse.  Is this all from anxiety?  I am so worried that it is something so serious.  I have seen 4 different doctors and had blood work and urinalysis done and always given anxiety as diagnosis.  I am currently taking lexapro for about 3 weeks now.. seems to help a little but annoying head pressure/pain will not seem to go away.  Does anyone have any advice?

Hi, i have same symptoms and feel like i have blood clot. I asked for MRi too, but my doc dont think i need one. I agreed with her and asked if i have a blood clot. She said no if there is one it starts from leg. Same day onwards i feel like i have some abnormality going on in my right leg. I dont want to be on any medication all my life so i try to handle pain myself and do some yoga and neck exercise.

Can anyone tell if you stop taking .5mg anti-anxiety pill at any poiny? Or you have to take it all your life?
