If I lay down too fast from standing I get migraine type aura and my head is throbbing like the blood pressure is too high. I feel so uncomfortable that I have stand up again. I feel immeadiately better and aura disappears but I am left with headache. This happens often and has happened for couple of years. I don't know what it is and google doesn't give answers.

What about something to do with the carotids? I am not medical in any way, have you seen a Dr about it?

Went to see gp. Basically he hadn't about this kind of thing before. He did blood pressure testing, listened my heart, looked in my ears and had a look of ekg I had done this morning(for another reason). He said that he will wait for the report for ekg but said that it seems that this behaviour is just unique to me.
