I Have Throbbing Pain In My Left Arm On The

I have throbbing pain in my left arm on the outside between the elbow and the shoulder. Had it for about a month.
If I press hard on the spot for about 15 minutes sometimes I can get it to stop. It may come back again the same day or occasionally not till the next day. I am an 83 year old female and have never been told that I have heart problems. I find I need to sleep about 14 hours per day. 8 to 10 hours at night, with naps during the day.
Could it be related to the fact that I have been treated for Bi-Polar disorder for 35 years.
I have taken the same meds before bed every day. Daily dosage of divalproex is 1000 mg. Dosage for Paroxetine
40 mg.
