This would by why they disappeared on nitrox. If you find you are diving on air again be conscious of your breathing and possibly make yourself breath more often, and see how you feel after. It works for me, if I just let myself get too relaxed underwater I end up almost "skip" breathing and can end up with headaches (right up to the splitting "I want to die" level). If I make myself think about my breathing I am fine, and I actually seem to use less air over the course of the dive.
