What Causes Pain And Stiffness In The Cervical Region Along With Fatigue?

I have several odd symptoms. First of all I m diabetic and take insulin. My numbers are slightly high, but nothing over 200. The past few days I feel fatigue, I go home and sleep after work for hours at a time. I have NEVER done that, I have stiffness and soreness in the base of my skull down to my neck and it causes headaches and hurts to move my eyes, my back and hips hurt from a stumble 3 days ago. I ve just been told I m flushed and red looking in my neck/chest area (blotchy) and as of today I have slight tingling in my left forearm. I just want to lay down and sleep. I ve also been experiencing heartburn, which I have never in my life had before.

hi
first thing you have to do is control your diabetes check for HB a1c and bring it under control if you have not done. the pain in your lower skull may be due to Cervical Spondylosis or cervical Spondylitis it happens by compression of nerves in your neck or bones in the neck causing compression to the nerves due to decrease space between them. tingling sensation in your forearm is also because of this condition only. it's better to take one x-ray to your neck region and to confirm whether you have cervical Spondylitis or spondylosis. if you are blood sugar levels are high you may feel fatigue and there maybe some gastritis trouble to. so better to check one HB a1c and a x-ray for your cervical region. thank you
