Can Axiety Cause These Types of Problems?

Hi ive been having these symptoms for few weeks now...

- pain in right side of the head and sometimes a sharp burning pain in right side of my head which lasts for 2-3 sec
- hearing a noise in my head and ears when the neck is moved far to right/left (kind of like muscles being stretched)
- seeing stuff on the sides of my eyes..(flashes, waves)
- feeling dreamy and sometimes out of this world...
- noises and pain behind my right ear
- sometimes i get this weird vibrations in my head when i move my neck...
- neck stiffness

ive been to my family DR few times and he performed some coordination exams and told me if he was a betting me man he would bet lots of money there is nothing wrong with my head. (like no brain tumor,or anythin else) but he told me to the CT scan so i can relax a little bit because ive been having anxiety because of these symptoms.

now before Wednesday i just want to know wut do you think is cause of symptoms?  could anxiety cause all these symtoms? like ear pressure, noises in the ear and etc...

I would agree with your doctor, but get the test any way to get comfort.  When you start watching yourself too closely all of these kind of symptoms occur, and the more they do, the closer you watch, then everything is magnified.

to be honest this is really causing problems in my everyday life. Like right now im having this feeling in right side of my head its like someone is pourin hot water down on right side of my head and i have this weird pains in my ears every like 30-40 min. Kind of like when u get a ear blockage in an airplane. I'm just worried it might be something serious and this is really making my anxiety symptoms worse. I dont know what caused this but this is really botherin me.
