Could it be mercury related, I have been experiencing this for a couple of weeks now. I am hypothyroid and have been looking into finding my "root" cause. I track it back to fillings I had put in. Have not been tested, so can't say. I looked up mercury poisoning and it was a symptom. Actually mine is in my brain, or base of skull.
I'm a Fizzer / rainstick esophagus. It sounded like my GERD capsules (which feel like they are getting stuck and also feel like they aren't helping)so I thought it was something like Zenker's Diverticulum. I am surprised I have not seen that mentioned yet.
Good luck, I hope we figure this out.
Hi...do u have Chiari or did u find info related to the fizzy sound to be Chiari?
Being hypermobile could be related to ur issue as it can also be Ehlers-Danlos which is a related condition to Chiari....
Stop by the Chiari forum here on MedHelp and I am sure we can offer some insights.

Lately i have also had "pop rocks" sounds in my neck. For a while, I've had migraines as a result of stiff neck promblems. I figured it was a pinched nerve or something. But reading through these comments, i saw something about a Chiari Malformation. Looking at this through wikipedia, it mentioned that one type of this malformation can be caused by hypermobility (double jointedness). Thankfully nonlethal, just annoying. I have several parts of me that are double jointed (shoulders, hips, arms) and i am wondering if those who are asking about the "neck fizzles" may also be hypermobile. Just curious, it could be a similarity we all exibit.
I am a male. I've had this symptom since I was about 5. 8 years from that (13) I was diagnosed with JIA or Juvenile Arthritis. I've had this sizzling/fax machine sound whenever I occassionally got bored in class or sometimes when i rest my head against something. The sound seems to originate from the base of the neck/shoulder connecting point. Everyone who gets this seems to be female or just given birth. This is probably gonna get buried by other comments but just trying to get answers.
Everything you guys are worried about, everyone gets. The eye twitching, ask everyone you know. Bet they had it some time in their life. The fizzles, I get that too all the time. It is just another mysterious thing that your body does. It is not a health issue. Some people just notice or even get these thing more often than other people. There is no reason to be scared. I was worried at first about the fizzle feeling and found out that I dont know anyone who hasn't felt that. If you are truely worried see a doc, they will do tests that will come back negative and you will be discouraged unless you realize there is nothing wrong. But if you are having pain in your neck then dont fool around. There is a number of possibilities that only your doc can figure out. So dont worry...Good Luck!
