Based on the report provided, it is understandable that you would have pain.
The changes to the cervical spine would result in pain occurring especially since there may be some compression of nerves. This would cause nerve related pain in addition to the pain due to the stenosis and osteoarthritis.
It is possible that you may need to see a pain management specialist to help deal with your discomfort. A combination of pain medication and physiotherapy is likely needed.
I hope this helps
