I have been lifting weights for about 2 years and never had any problems when working out until recently. I finished a set on the hack squat with not really heavy weight and when I finished the set my head felt like it was gonna explode and I could feel my pulse in several areas(one paticularly very painful in the middle right side of my head) I had to stop my workout early and go home and lay down. I concerned now because the pains in my head did not go away after a week, which made me decide to stop all training in hope of it going away, but it didn't. I went to the gym yesterday and the same thing happened again. I talked to a personal trainer and he said it could be something called an exertion headache. The last thing I want to happen is to collapse dead in the gym because of a brain hemmorage caused by an aneurysm.
I'm wondering if anybody has had this happen to them before and if they have what advice do you have on it.
by the way i made a doctor appointment tomorrow 8/18/04 but I was just hoping to get some feedback before then.
