My experience-I get intense pressure in my face and head EVERY time I eat or drink anything

---

I (26F) have been having this problem for MONTHS, since I was treated with antifungals for a candida infection in the intestines. I wake up feeling fine, but as soon as I start going about my day--specifically eating and drinking) I get intense pressure in my nose/forehead/sinuses and sometimes temples, ears, cheekbones, back of head/neck, top of head, and teeth. My jaw clicks/snaps, my nose runs, and I have a hard time doing anything because the pressure makes it so difficult to focus on anything and think clearly. Sometimes there's a headache (pain) component, and once my right ear completely closed up.

This happens after EVERY SINGLE MEAL, no exceptions, and takes about 4 hours to go away, which is unfortunately about when it's time to eat again, and so it comes back. I've tried many, many different food combinations, including getting a professional, doctor-prescribed food intolerance test and changing my diet accordingly. But this happens as soon as I'm finished eating--not even enough time for the food to have digested at all. It's worse when I drink water after eating, too.

I have a history of migraines and would assume this is related, but none of the medications my neurologist prescribed made a dent (he outright claimed he's not sure if it's migraines either and is just assuming). My migraines also used to be a lot worse, less than a year ago--I could hardly look at anything when they happened because my eyes wouldn't work right--so this is mild in comparison, but constant, which the others weren't. I have no relief whatsoever.

I have other GI issues outside of the candida infection. I've been diagnosed and treated with SIBO, SIFO, and leaky gut, as well as the aforementioned food intolerances. I still have a slight imbalance of gut bacteria, but not enough to qualify as SIBO. My oxalates were also really high in a urine test.

Has anyone else experienced this?
