I confess that I have gone through so many
adverse reactions because of the number of
drugs, I am on, that it is hard to be truthful
about what you ask.But yes, I have experience the pressure you
speak of - it feels like your head is swelling;
infact, I did have a stroke/seizure episode in
Aug. for which i blame w/d from K. But it could
have been lithium going up.I am in the middle of an experiment about the
lithium level. As since my Synthroid dose
was reduced by about 45% and the li level kept
the same, I suspect, that maybe this balance is
what gives me all these symptoms: swollen ankles,
head pressure, weight gain, great fatigue, and
the peripheral neuropathy.But I may be wrong.
I will let you know.

P.S. I wish we had li-detectors - anyone out there
in an enterpristing spirit and technically adept
want to make some money?:-)
