Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache And Nightmares

Hi, this morning I had several flash backs of dreams I have had and they came in waves , but I felt faint afterwards and had broke out in a sweat and had to lay down so I wouldn t fall. I was awake going about my day while this was going on.. Now I have bad headache and have never had this happen. Any ideas if I should look into something?

Hello!
Thank you for your question on HCM! I understand your concern.

I think that these symptoms may be related to low blood pressure or epilepsy seizure. The sweat is very suggestive for low blood pressure or low plasma glucose. But the headache after this episode is more indicative for a partial seizure.

I would recommend to consult with your GP, have a routine blood analysis, blood glucose levels and to monitor your blood pressure.

If everything results normal , an EEG would be helpful with the suspicion of a seizure.

Hope to have been helpful!

Greetings! Dr. Aida
