Last nite I had throbbing pain down my left arm again ( from shoulder to fingertips). I have also noticed I m constipated the last 4 or 5 months. The drs told me it was just anxiety but I no my body, something just isn t right. Should I be asking for the camera down my throat and up my backside? Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

You need to show to an orthopedics once to rule out presence of cervical rib as that can also present like this, and rest all have already been ruled out.

Constipation has nothing to do with this, just take high fiber diet and it should resolve.
