What Causes Chronic Neck Pain , Headaches, Dizziness And Extreme Fatigue?

I am a 46 year old female. History of migraines. The last month I have been experiencing chronic neck pain, headaches, dizziness, sensitivity to light, and extreme fatigue. Have been taking medication (muscle relaxer) that has not eased the pain in my neck. I spend a lot of time hiking and had many tick bites several months ago. Should I be tested for Lyme disease?

First thing is that increasing migraine frequency need shift to you migraine prophylaxis. it will give you a new energy in your life and you will enjoy a headache free life.
During sleeping , roll your towel and put below neck to relax your neck muscle .
Daily meditate and yoga to decrease stress .

Consult your doctors about migraine prophylaxis.

Lyme disease is associated with fever, headache, fatigue and rashes.
You did not teel about such symptoms.
If you are suffering from such symptoms then you need tests and important test is Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test.
The test used most often to detect Lyme disease, ELISA detects antibodies to B. burgdorferi.

Thanx.
Take care.
