terrible ear pain

It started about 2000 and seems to be getting worse.  I have terrible ear pain, 1-10 a 9, burning, tingling, and weak and very tight muscles in my neck, running all the way down my upper back.  I have been on Rx Topamax and a Flexeril a muscle relaxer for years.  Do you think it could possible be a pinched nerve in my neck ?

Do you have cervical spine issues?  Herniated discs or bulging discs or arthritis?  Have you had an MRI.  You need to find out what's going on.  I get shooting pains in my ears and jaw from my neck with the herniated discs.  I know it's bad.
