Wining/buzzing.

Does anyone experience pain from the neck going up the side of head without pain but with tightness and with a sort of wining/buzzing? Almost dulling my hearing .

I had similar pain in the back and side of my head but I don't remember any soundtrack except tinnitus. The pain was referred pain because tight shoulder muscles were irritating the nerves and the neck muscles were also tightening to try to protect themselves. I suffer with myofascial pain syndrome and that is probably the main culprit but it is also more common in patients with PMR.

Well that is interesting and somewhat reassuring in an odd way.nim seeing my doctor next week. Thanks a lot.

I have been experiencing the same type of pain from the neck & shooting up the side of the left side of my head when I sleep on my right side. If I sleep on my left side I don't get that pain.

That sounds very like a nerve getting trapped in a particular position.
