I don't know what's happening to my head and neck. What should I do?

Symptoms I have:

-Nausea upon standing
-Stiffness of neck
-Tingling on scalp
-Occasional black outs if I stand up too fast (My vision goes black and it takes time to go back to normal)

Symtoms I DON'T have which are commonly associated with this:

-I do not have Pain
-I do not get headaches
-I do not vomit from feeling nauseous


-I do not get seizures

Basically, I've had this problem for years. I assumed it was originally due to anxiety because it was just occasional tingling on the scalp. Almost like a feeling of blood being rushed to your head making your head feel hot and tingly. But lately, I've been feeling more nauseous upon standing and walking and I feel like I can't even walk more than a mile before feeling like I'm going to pass out from nausea. I'm afraid this may turn into a medical emergency if I can't get evaluated properly since I don't know who to go to for a situation like this. I've been to the clinic twice and they said nothing was wrong and I can't afford to keep paying copays. I get a primary doctor in 2 months but I do not think I can wait that long.

What do you think I should do?
