What Causes Sharp Pain In Neck Along With Dizziness And Vomiting?
My 36 yr old daughter has been sick for 3 weeks. She has sharp pain in her neck, dizziness when she sits up and throws up when she sits. the only relief is when she lays down flat. She has had blood tests, a CAT scan and spinal tap and they cannot find anything wrong.

Hi Dear ,
As per your query you have sharp pain in neck along with dizziness and vomiting . Well there can be many reasons for vertigo , bu the most common is anxiety and the other Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) are ear infection , hypoglycemia , anemia , meniere's disease , migraine and alteration in he blood circulation . Some times dizziness and vomiting also occur due to some reasons like cervical spondolysis and diabetic condition . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination .
