Pain Across The Skull, Upper Back And Neck During Neck Movement, Had Convulsion Symptoms. What Is Wrong?
Over the past week, my neck s range of motion has decreased, especially to my left. Occasionally, if I glance to the left, my neck locks up and I get a rocketing vertical pain into my skull and down my upper back.Sometimes my vision blacks out for a split second. A few days ago I was lying on my back. When I slowly moved to sit up, swinging my legs to the floor my upper body and arms began flailing as though I was having a convulsion. What the heck happened? Should I see a doctor?

From your question I understand that you are likely to have early spondylotic changes of the cervical spine.It must be confirmed with a X-ray of the cervical spine,your age,occupation and a detailed clinical examination.
