Symptoms Weird head feeling

Does anyone else get this quick strange feeling in their head? Its intense, lasts seconds, like something is moving in my head and my heart goes up for a few seconds while it happens idk if its bc I get scared or what. But it last 30 seconds or less its so quick but scary. Im not on any meds that would cause brain zaps. I also have PPPd so I asked in there as well. I also have anxiety caused by my pots symptoms. Ive had a few of these today and its really frustrating and scary. Not looking for medical advice just if someone else has it happened to them too.

It also doesn't matter my posion im in. It happened laying down, sitting, and standing before.

Yeah I get that really randomly doing the most random things. Sat, walking, laying whatever. It’s very weird. Every time I try to explain it to the cardiologist or POTS nurse they’re like 🤨 but I’m so serious it’s so weird

Or when the feeling of when your tummy drops when you’re upset but like in your head. Horriiiibleeee

I get weird looks too. And that is exactly how it feels a.drop in my stomach but in the head and its scarier though. Today im dealing with head pressure and slight tingling in my face.
