I think this is a hot flash. I was getting them frequently but started bcp;s in July and they have been less intense and less often. Every now and then I still get them and they still throw me for a loop. I am just sitting here, chilling out, they I got a tingly sort of squeezing feeling along the back of my head, then I got warm from the neck up. My legs feel a little like jelly, but I can walk fine. I feel a little shaky and still warm, but my face is not as hot as it was. I know I've had this before, I just feel like complaining. Isn't it such a drag? It's not life threatening and I am not panicking, just venting.

I wish good health to all of you who are reading!!!!

I was getting a feeling similar to this a lot last summer. I'd get a flush like feeling in my chin and my lips would tingle. Just my chin would get hot it seemed. I'd get the jelly leg feeling and have to sit down. I'd get the band feeling, too, but the band would feel like it was across my forehead, not the back of my head. I get the head tingles a lot when I'm stressed out--it's usually a sign for me that I'm feeling stressed. It's like a signal to slow down for me when I feel the tingles.

I get tingling around the cheeks and chin. Sometimes I feel like I am wearing a mask on the front side of my head. I am lucky that I have escaped the jelly legs so for.
