When I find doing something that causes me pain, I attempt not to do it anymore, I'm funny that way. Jim :roll:

Or consult your Doctor, soon. I doubt if Babette, will answer as she doesn't visit after ten years.

Please, please see your own doctor! What might have been Babette's problem yrs ago likely has little to do with you today... and even if there are similarities you need to get checked out so that you get results matching your history, your body, your problems, whether or not you have apnea (which normally does NOT cause pain) or anything else. You're two different people, not small machines!

Hi Goofproof, hi Julie,
Thank you very much for your message.
Do not worry, I have already scheduled an appointment with a doctor (today actually). I was just trying to undestrand the more I can about my condition before visiting him. I believe that my problem is sleep related because I feel the pressure only after a night when I didn't sleep well.
I wish you the best
Have a very nice day

Hi Kullab,

I’m having some of the same symptoms that you described in your post reaching out to Babs. I’m actually reaching out asking the same question to you. Any diagnosis, treatment, etc. following your visit?

Thanks
