Do you also have a fever? This along with headache and neck stiff neck/pain could be meningitis. It looks like you're already consulted your Dr. Did he explore this possibility? If so, I guess you'll just have to wait for the CT report. Good luck!

You are obviously seeing a doctor so hopefully they will rule out anything serious. I'm a nurse and it doesn't really sound much like a tumor to me. I had severe neck pain once when I was temporarily working in a strange town and the motel bed had big pillows and I was using 2 of them. When I finally tried one small pillow, like I had at home, it fixed my neck pain.
If you drink a lot of caffeine, then don't for a day or two, that can cause horrible headaches from caffeine withdrawal. Good luck.

Could even be tension or jaw problem- good old stress can do things like that- I hope you get a good report- send me the ct scan and Ill have someone look at it- that does that- md in family- D

To me it looks as if you have asked a similar question and it has been answered. Anyway, wait for the report. No point in worrying. there are several reasons and they need to eliminate the different possibilities. So let them do their job.

Maybe you have chronic stiff shoulders. Stiff shoulders cause your headache. Just wait until diagnostic test results are available.

hey, do you possibly get Sickness & Nausea ?
if you do , I think you,d better get yourself checked out right away, you could have a illness called "Hydrocaphelus", I was born with this condition, and have to live with a shunt all my life.
the shunt is a tube which to connected from the brain to the stomach, which I was born with.
