I take the following medications: Atorvastatin 20mg for high cholesterol , Co Q-10 50mg, Aspirin 81mg, Citalopram 20mg for overwhelming sadness, Omeprazole 20mg for acid reduction, Loratadine 10mg for unexplained itching and hives , and Necon 1 mg for regulation of periods. I also have sinus troubles and frequently take Acetaminophen w/Caffeine, nasal spray, and non-drowsy Phenylephrine HCI - nasal decongestant PE. Thank you for your time Lisa

It looks to me that you are having symptoms of cervical spondylitis. i would suggest you to take following steps.
1.Avoid using very high pillow or a very soft mattress
2. Take tablet Pregabalin and Methylcobalamine daiy
3.Apply hot water fomentation and Diclofenec ointment at neck
4.Visit a physiotherapist and start neck muscle strengthening exercises
5.Myoril or Myospaz are muscle relaxant if pain and tightness is very severe
MRI needed if symptoms persist after these steps
