mpshube,

I doubt you will get the kind of understanding in another forum like you will get here. Your symptoms sound like classic PCS. When ever you get a head ache, ice your upper neck immediately. As I mentioned, you need to learn to turn at your shoulder not at your neck. I have this exact same problem.

The SSRI should help with the anxiety. You should ask about getting a betta-blocker for anxiety attacks. It can be a big help, is quick acting, and does not have the risks of a benzo. I keep propanolol inn the medicine cabinet for such time.

You likely need a high quality image of your upper neck. This is a common injury area.

More later.

My best to you.
