Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. To answer your question, YES. Stress can be a cause for intense shoulder or neck pain. Stress triggers body to contract muscles and thereby chest, shoulder and neck muscles get agitated, triggering pain and tiredness. Light headed feeling could be due to your obsession and anxiety. You need to consult a psychologist for psychotherapy treatment.
