Neck pain - Open to All Other Health Topics Message Board

I've been having a lot of neck pain. Sometimes it goes down into my shoulders but mostly it's right in the back of my neck and up into the back of my head or the left side of my head and around my left eye.
Also, sometimes when I lay down on my left side or I turn my head to the left, I get dizzy. It's like the room spins around. If I turn my head the other way, it goes away. I went to my dr and he checked my ears and didn't find anything wrong with them. He just gave me some pills for dizzyness. Should I be concerned about a blocked artery in my neck? I don't know what this is.
I feel like my scineses are plugged up sometimes could that be it?
Thanks for any help you can give me.\

I have had a lot of stress/anxiety lately. could that be it?
Without getting into it, there has been a lot of stressful things going on in my family right now. My bp is little high but not too bad about 140/77 today.

And, I do have digenative disk disease in my upper back.
