Leaking in head?? was started.
Wow. I feel water running through my head. I have a deviated septum is it possible it can just be drainage? Is it life threatening? I am really scared I thought I was the only one. Its been goin on for three months now. What can I do?
Ok. I thought I was the only one in the world with this problem. But mine is worse then all of yours. Not only do I get the dripping in my head, I also get it down my back and in my chest. Really scary. I have been having this problem since 2001. I've been to the ER TWICE for this problem, and both times I got diagnosed with a sinus infection. I am feeling the dripping as I am typing this. I am so scared, because it never goes completly away. Somtimes I would get a little pain and pressure with it as well.
Sometimes I will take over-the-counter sinus medicines for it, and it will help it, which gives.me a relief, because it could be sinus related. But what about the dripping in my back and chest area? I too had CAT scans and chest Xrays, but the Docs found nothing. I am 31 (still relatively young), but I worry this will affect me as I get older. Somtimes I get scared that this might kill me. I have no clear answers to what this could be. I am uninsured, and I've been dealing with this for 10 years off and on.
PLEASE HELP.....
Hi all. Recently I have been experiencing pressure headaches in the right side of my head. I also feel like there is water running inside my head and now the pain is begining to go down the right side of my neck. I have had 2 CAT scans and an MRI; everything normal. I have been told that I "possibly" have a deviated septum; that I have a hybrid cluster/migraine situation; that I have too much tension... Basically I feel less than good most of the time but I take some comfort in reading these posts and knowing I a not just a hypochondriac!

Add me to the "water running inside my head" club. I have been suffering with headaches for almost one year, had 2 CT scans and a MRI, all negative. If this is nothing wrong then I don't want to know when something is...

Where to go from here??? was started.
add me to your list of people with the drippy head syndrome, i only get it once in a while and it will feel like a drop of water has rolled down my head but there wont be anything there, sometimes iot feels like a spider crawling down my scalp, also i occasionally have clear fluid that will come from my nose and ears, very wattery not a nasal discharge, i also have tingling in my hands, arms and legs plus very weird feelings in my brain like something is short circuitibg, I had many mri, ct scan, blood work, dr said its nothing but my last vmri said i have a few small t-2 bright signal foci in the subcortail white matter, i wonder if this means MS. Any one know?
please let me know what type of tests you went thru, I feel like it may be a clot or something
I can't believe that there are other people out there that feels this dripping feeling in their head. I have a dripping feeling in the left side of my head that comes and goes, feels cold, like an ice cream headache. Can anyone tell me what type of tests or diagnosis they recieved for this. It worries me, concerned it may be clot related. Let me know. Thanks

Hi yvonne
I posted few times. I constantly have fluid draining in my head, neck crakcling and tinnutus among a 24hour heachache. I have been going to doctors for two years now and no one is helping they keep saying different things plus I need to see a therapist maybe its stress. What they dont realize its the doctors giving the stress. Having a heache 24 hours and fluid draining in the head is not stress. I know what its like to have a normal head and mine isnt. But as rare as it is I have seen thru this site other people having similar symptons and having no help. If you get this my direct email is: ***@**** if you want to email me directly. Its funny I had a nodule in the same area it showed up on three different exams - I finally had a doctor notice it, though he insisted it couldnt cause my problem. Maybe is some rare cases it does. My piturart level was even raised. Anyway he dicides to send me for another MRI becasue the others were older, get this it wasnt there either though my smptonss persist and are somewhat worse. My only conlsuion when I was looking at the films (my gut tells me I am right) is that each radiolgist/techinican takes different slices and I beleive they can totally take off slices or not the right slice missing the original picture taken that shows something. Though doctors still disagree. Not that I know what I am looking at, but see similarties and differences is not too hard to do on films.
Hello,
I AM AMAZED TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM HAVING UNFORTUNATELY, IT SEEMS LIKE NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEMS I AM HAVING. WELL AT FIRST MY HEAD FELT LIKE LIQUID WAS DRAINING ON THE INSIDE OF MY HEAD, NOW THE INSIDE OF MY HEAD BURNS AND MAKES A BUZZING NOISE AND AT TIMES I GET DIZZY, I HAD BEEN TO A NEUROLOGIST AND HAD A MRI ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WHERE THEY DISCOVERED I HAD A SMALL NODULE ON MY PITURITORY THAT WAS NON ACTIVE, I HAD ANOTHER ONE ABOUT 7 MONTS AGO WHERE THE MRI WAS NORMAL AND THE PITURITORY NODULE WAS GONE, BUT I AM STILL HAVING HEAD PROBLEMS, IS THERE ANYONE ELSE HAVING THESE SAME PROBLEMS, OH ALSO IT MAKES ME WEAK, AT TIMES I FEEL PINS AND NEEDLES AND HOT SENSATION IN MY FACE. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WITH THESE PROBLEMS, PLEASE HELP, SORRY FOR THE SPELLING
hi
just read your post. If you can tell I have similar symptons. I also have ringinng in ears and the feeling of a heart beat in ears. I also have the fluid draining problem I cant seem to find anyone to help me let us know what you are being DX with maybe the rest of us will be helped someohow also.
thanks.........
I was recently diagnosed with CM and have heavy pressure/pulsation in my head (tinnitus and "heartbeat in both ears), my head bobs when I'm trying to sit still, it feels like someone is pulling my hair all of the time, base of my skull burns and my ears drip throughout the day. I suggested to my Dr. that I thought I might have CSF leak and he treated me like I was crazy. The leaking has been going on for more than a year. I also have 2 herniated discs and a syrinx so it didn't seem so far fetched to me. I can't get anyone to explain the pulsation and give me some kind of resolution. It's driving me crazy. I don't sleep enough. I'm losing vision in my right eys and my body feels like it's trembling/vibrating all of the time. I had a CINE MRI that showed diminished posterior CSF flow and cerebellar tonsils abut foramen magnum. I also have what I call "drop attacks" where I fall down without losing consciousness (I feel like I'm in a vortex)--no hydrocephalous. I am becoming physically weaker every day. Does any of this sound familiar to you? I'm desperate for answers and trying to plan my next move. I need to find a Dr. who is well versed in this type of problem.
Thank you San Francisco for your reply! Again this is very reassuring for me. Although I still need another evaluation, it is SO good to know that I am finally hearing comments of people who felt what I felt! I was thinking like oh goodness, I have one of those odd conditions like only one in a million get because everyone would have these surprising reactions when I told them I drip through my head. Thank you so much. I will have to do some "spring" cleaning early-lol-
Dear No Name,
I understand your concern, I had the very same feeling and still do. I saw an ENT and he determined it was Post Nasal Drip.
I know it feels really odd, Now I am not a doctor, but I think that if you had a "spinal fluid leak" from the age of 15-22...well I am pretty sure you would have been dead long ago.
My post nasal drip comes and goes, it depends on many things, seasons of the year, what part of the country I am in, and how dusty my room gets...
lol So clean your room and under your bed, vaccume and dust often, that may help.
Well good luck dear. I mean, its only a matter of time before you find what you are seeking. Keep us updated on your condition and if you find anybody!
i posted I do its horrible I keep looking for help.
I worry about what it is---but, from these replies, I am kinda at ease, and still nervous to get a test. I would hope it is a sinus problem rather than something else. It interferes with my life in a way that it has been going on for seven years, but it comes intermittently, and cracks my nerves once its happening, and then when it's over, I think, Why do I keep feeling this ****? and why must I drip in my head? because nobody else does.(that I know of)
Does the dripping sensation actually interfere with your life or do you just worry about what it is? An MRI of the brain (like the doctor said) is a non invasive 30 minute test that should set your mind at ease.
