Thanks for replying!

I guess I should clarify, Im not a pilot, when i speak of flying I mean
on commercial jets as a customer. also, when I say Ive been flying for
25 years, I mean I am 25 years old and I've been flying my whole life.
25 yrs of age is when the body starts slowing down, not adapting as
fast as it used to so I think it may be what you speculate, a vertigo
issue in relation to the rapid transition (its always when the plane
has taken off [never when its landing] and then specificaly starts
elevating rapidly, then it stops about 10 seconds later, I suspect its
because although the plane isn't done elevating, it doesn't have to
elevate as quickly since its further away from the airport??). The
most pressure and sensitivity I feel during these episodes is directly
dead center of my forehead. Its such a bizzare feeling, you really
feel like something has taken over you and there is nothing you can do,
I even begin to squirm a little but it never lasts long enough to do
anything substantial. I know how crazy this must all sound, but it
really is true!

I suspected a heart condition like you sated above but Im a healthy 25
year old, and it doesn't happen when I sit towards the back of plane
and although thats not proof it isn't a cardiac issue it just seems
like if it was one, it would ocurr regardless of where I sat. but I
have a doctors appnt soon so I will get tested for everything (you
never know).

I tried googling aviation vertigo but basically nothing shows up and
what does seems to referr entirely to pilots of air fighter jets....
(clearly not my demographic). Then i tried looking up vertigo itself
but nothing there seems to mention planes... is there a happy medium?
