I'm not expecting you to remember when they fell out, but also keep in mind that you may have actually taken them out.

Thanks for the feedback. The program is demanding a huge amount of work from your brain, and as it ramps up to process all that, it becomes much more active. That means it needs more oxygen and more food... which means it needs more blood flow... which means the blood vessels must open up... which means blood pressure increases and so does heat. Higher blood pressure accounts for feelings of pressure and borderline headaches, and as your brain begins to acclimate to the increased workload (by forming new synaptic connections, etc. in the long term) and you acclimate to the differences (short term notice) you won't notice those effects as much, or at all.
