Sounds like a pinched nerve of some sort. Have you tried standing under a hot shower or taking Motrin? A person can hold a lot of "tension" in their neck. It also may be related to your job. I know this is not what you wanted to hear being without insurance and all but without going to a doctor you can not be sure what you are dealing with.
