What Is The Cause Of Pricking Pain In The Leg And The Head Of One With High BP And Cholesterol ?

Yes please - good day. I am 67 years old, considered healthy, have had a cholesterol problem and blood pressure . I started watching my diet and exercising - lost 6 kgs, sleeping well, but occassionally I get a very fast zinging sound through my head. It is intermittent - I usually feel like a pin prick in my right leg at that time - I also get a sharp pain to the front of my head - again this does not last. I am on aspiring. Should I be concerned?

Hello Oliv,

Welcome here on HCM.
You should not take your symptoms lightly without proved otherwise with the investigation.
So you show to your family physician and go with their advice and come to final conclusion what is happening in your body.
As per your story what I presume you might be suffering from cluster headache or migraine.

Get well soon.
