This has been happening off and on for the past several months. I get this feeling of pressure throughout my entire head. And my teeth hurt\*. And I’m a little dizzy. This usually happens at the same time that I am experiencing indigestion after a big meal.

So, yes, I know, I should ask a doctor. But still, has anyone else experienced this? What do you know about it?

\*I describe it thusly: They feel as though they were about to burst.
