Heaviness In Head, Vomiting. Low Blood Pressure. Reason?
Hi,
My husband has retched and vomited when he lied down. What caused it? He didn't have any head trauma. He didn't have any problem with his ears. He had to sleep sitting. Only last night that he could get some sleep by lying on his stomach. He still feels heavy in his head but his blood pressure has come down from 160/107 to 138/85 now. He has to be very careful when changing position from sitting to lying down on his back now becasue that will triggers violent vomiting and retching.
