Dear Mr XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in.
The description of your symptoms is too generalized to allow a definitive diagnosis to be made. I would suggest the following:
a.     Take an analgesic and a muscle relaxant for about 2 weeks. This needs to be done under the supervision of your treating physician
b.     Try and reduce your anxiety levels as your symptoms may be secondary to anxiety or stress. XXXXXXX breathing and yoga will help. If there is no relief, you can try taking anti-anxiety medication under your physician’s guidance.
c.     If you get no relief with medications, get a magnetic resonance imaging scan (MRI scan) of the brain and cervical spine.
d.     If the MRI is normal, you may need an electromyography or a water and take plenty of fruits in your diet
I would suggest you see a neurologist and get an evaluation done.
Hope this helps.
