Pressurisation

Hi,

I was wondering if you experts could answer a question for me?

We flew home on a 747-400 from the US this morning followed by a domestic flight on an E195. the 747 flight was fab although on the E195 final descent my husband had awful pains in his face which resulted in us having to go to hospital.

The Dr had suggested that it was most likely due to pressurisation and lack of oxygen. Is this common and do you think I should contact the respective airline?

It may be totally irrelevant but I did notice midway that at one stage the air conditioning and overhead blowers were blowing out hot air.

Thank you in advance :-)
