First day on accutane- pressure in head

I just took my first pill of Clavaris (30mg) last night and this afternoon I have felt like Ive had pressure in my head and I wanted to get some input before I take my second pill. I can sometimes freak myself out when it comes to medical situations and overly worry so I wanted to find out if I should worry about this. The pressure felt a bit better when I tried to calm myself down and then a lot better when I ate (I was pretty hungry when it was at its worse). It been a couple hours since I ate and Im starting to feel a bit of pressure again. I know that doxycycline can cause this but I dont think Ive taken any for 2 weeks. Is it normal to feel pressure when you first start accutane? Should I be worried? Could it be completely unrelated? Any input anyone can give would be greatly appreciated! 🙂

Too soon to be attributed to Accutane. Relax

Accutane takes at least 3 months to see improvement.
