Pressure At Back Top Of Head, Muscle Spasms And Eye Twitching (Top voted first)

I get muscle spasms and twitches all over. Head pressure at top back of head, terrible dizziness and ringing in ears. 42 year old female. 4 weeks I suffer with dizziness and the feeling of sinus pressure but doc says its high BP. 140/90 put me on Bio atenolol together with adcor water pill. Why should I use the BP pill and a water pill at the same time? Why not just a BP pil? Thank you.

Hi. Stress and anxiety appeared to be the problem. Had stressfull time some weeks back and after the stress subsided,the symptoms appear.stress caused my BP to went up. So we stopped the BP meds and tried anti anxiety meds called Busparone. 5mg in morning and 5mg in evening. After a week the symptoms started fading a bit.BP also went down a bit. Cannot believe that 'grief' or trauma or stress could cause this,but the buspar is definitely helping

Hello, Chrissie! How are you?

Both of these medications can help lower blood pressure and it is common for a doctor to prescribe more than one, at the beginning, to try to help bring blood pressure down as fast and as safely as possible.

The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, increased urination, headache and hypotension.

Is there anything else I can help with?
