I don't read that in there... did I just miss it?He said he was diving air. NetDoc, can narcosis cause pain in the forehead?

He was talking about "tinglies" which could mean a nervous disorder. This concerns me a lot and he needs to look further into this. He should find a diving doctor.

I recently was doing a deep dive and at around 105ft I started feeling a severe pressure build up in the front portion of my brain. It felt as if my brain was being deprived of oxygen while thinking that if I didnt decrease my depth I would pass out. It was quite painful and as soon as I came back above 100ft the pressure slowly decreased. Also I was diving air . Anyone have any thoughts or ideas on what happened? It was a little scary to say the least cause passing out at 100ft is a death sentence IMO.
Thanks

Do you think I can dive deeper or this is my limit even on nitrox?
