A few weeks ago I suffered with head pressure, lightheadness, neck pain and fatigue for 3 weeks straight. I got a spinal tap and catscan done and those cam e out normal so I took antiobiotics and they ddin't do anything. It went away for about a week and now the past few days I am so lightheaded and with horrible neck pain. It's swollen on the back right side of my neck and my doctor checked it out and reassured me it's not neck cancer. What could make me feel so horrible that even the doctor can't give a diagnosis?

I suggest you see a doctor of rheumatology and ask him to check for Fibromyalgia. You have most of the symptoms. Only a rheumatologist Can diagnose this. most medical doctors do not know how to check for this condition.
The pain of Fibromyalgia occurs in areas where the muscles attach to bone or ligaments and is similar to the pain of arthritis. The joints themselves are not affected, however, so they are not deformed nor do they deteriorate as they may in arthritic conditions. The pain typically originates in one area, usually the neck and shoulders, and then radiates out. Most patients report feeling some pain all the time; and many describe it as "exhausting." The pain can vary, depending on the time of day, weather changes, physical activity, and the presence of stressful situations; it has been described as stiffness, burning, stabbing, sudden, radiating, and aching. The pain is often more intense after disturbed sleep.
I have written an article on this condition and I'm including A link where you can read about it and see if this fits what you are going through.
If you have any questions please let me know,

It is a problem to be treated by acupuncturist. No doc can do it.
