Hi jazzymynn,
I have had this, and tylenol tension (for neck and shoulder pain) really works. I usually feel the tenseness when I really stressed, or when I'm feeling anxious. Try the tylenol, if it's safe to take with any of your existing meds. It should be...just get it at WalMart, and ask the pharmacist at walmart if you cant reach your doc to tell you if it's okay. Maybe you can try a warm bubble bath? Or like Rina076 suggests...a hot pad or massage.
take care.

Yeah, I get this a lot, along with throbbing head pressure.
I get it most often when I'm working towards a deadline and I'm on my laptop a lot.
It gets so bad I can't even sit at my laptop because it feels like I'm going to pass out.
