Summary

A Reddit user got thunderclap headaches at the back of the head at ejaculation just after Covid, three times, the third easing but lingering for weeks. Blood tests and a CT scan were clear. After the headaches stopped came bouts of dizziness and vertigo, a hospital visit and doctors saying nothing was wrong. Three months on the user was still foggy-headed and light-headed daily, with anxiety back worse than before.
