Re: Help me throat tightness and neck stiffness and head pressure.
Hey.
Sorry to hear you feel so bad, its really an awful feeling to think your dying of something terminal. Basically Ive been told I have inner ear issues and it causes me to feel off balance. Feeling light headed or dizzy is scary and will cause anxiety. When we get scared we tense our muscles and that causes neck/shoulder aches and pains. A few monthes ago I had a stiff neck and heat up the back of my head and face etc, with tingling.
I convinced myself it was some sort of tumour and then panicked more and my head got worse. When i went to the docs she examined me and said it was most definitly not a tumour and when your neck/shoulders are tense that it can cause heat and weird sensations in your head. She suggested I use heat and ibuprofen to let the muscles in my neck relax.
have you tried one of those hot wheat bags on your neck, they do help and are quite relaxing. When muscles tighten they press on nerves and this in turn can cause heat on the scalp.
I have worries about tumours etc but im learning slowly that if you had a tumour, you would get bad headaches and sickness as well as blurry vision. basically we wouldnt have to be on here because we would know something was very wrong and so would the doctors.
feel better soon and im here if you need a chat, as we all are

Ally Craig: It's possible. What if I choke? What if an asteroid come hurling down onto the restaurant?... I'll tell you what, if you swear on your eternal soul that I'll make it through my entree, then I'll wait.
