Neck noises

Neck noises.  When I move my neck theres usually a spewing squishy sound.  When I lay down and my stomach growls theres a sizzling noise in my neck.  The worst one of all that I cant hardly take anymore is when I walk each step theres a squish clicking noise and it not only sounds like in the back of my neck but its in my forehead right above the bridge of my nose too.  I cant tell for sure though if its coming from just my neck or both neck and forehead.   I have a ear problem, tapping sound I can feel right before it happens when I move around sometimes, or just noises makes a muffled sound only when its quiet.  No problems with background noise.  ENT mentioned Stape ear muscle spasms.  Could be nuero related.  For 3 months, left trapezius muscle, even with physical therapy remains enlarged and very hard compared to my right one.  Physical therapist said that I dont need to come back as my muscle knots are out and loosened.  Demi if your around, MRI of C-spine what does and can it show.  Does it show muscles, nodes, ateries and stuff.  My Cspine was normal except for slight herniated 3-4/3-5.  Brain MRI just those tiny scattered areas of increased white matter signals.  Second nuero said probably ischemic small veins and wouldnt even need a follow up MRI like the report suggested.  I dont know how physical therapy took care of the pressure head and face feeling, but the MRI didnt show anything abnormal.  But these clicking, squishy sounds I cant hardly take anymore.

My job I dont have to do anything except look at parts every 10 mins or so.  Automated machines.  Pretty simple.  Raised table high enough for neck posture.  Really have worked hard, with posture.  Its improved quite a bit.  Not perfect though.  Neck/above nose noise sounds like after you pop your fingers, theres kinda a squishy or clicking noise.  Facet joint problem?  Bend my head foward and right in the middle of the spine right under my skull is a lump about size of a halfdollar. Its very hard, and almost feels like a bone. When head is straight, can barely feel it.  Ill reread this last post a few times, alot of info in it.  The muscle im speaking of runs along top of shoulder up back of neck to skull.  Its raised all along my shoulder and hard with balls up along back of neck.  I cant even feel the muscle like I can with my right one.  I can pinch it and not feel a thing.  Only feeling I get goes up into my head.  Push down on the top of both my shoulders and everything goes away, it feels sooooo good.  Head feels light, normal and I can move my head around.  Let go and pressure feeling goes into head and cant turn my head as easy.   ENT said I had pretty bad right deviated septum I didnt even know I had.   Go back to him in about a week to see about Tinnitus going away or not.  One little addition with my ears, about the time it started I was showing people how I could move my ears.  Very stupid, thought it was a special skill and made them laught.  I stopped doing it, tried it though yesterday and theres a roaring noise when I do it.  Maybe I screwed them up a couple months ago.  Also going to a fitness center next week and try stationary bike, treadmill and maybe some things to streghten my neck and shoulders.

I will try the claritin.  And my neuro gave me a prescrip for Amitripilyne or something like that, a antidepressant.  Im going to try to wait for vacation before trying it due to drowsy side effect and whether they would let me work or not when I report it.  If i dont and something happens its grounds for seperation.
