Yep, Occipital Neuralgia, I have it and still can't get rid of it. Pain from my neck to the back of my head especially when under stress or sickness. A recent case of sinusitis made it so bad I went to the doctor and after antibiotics with treatment for my recent sinusitis, it started dying down but still with a mild pain back there. I try to not get sick or do too much involving my neck because of this. When I reach my limit, i usually rest and apply heat to the back of my neck. Heat therapy usually works for some relief. Hope you feel better.
