Hi there ~
I understand your concerns. Pain in your right shoulder and arm with severe dizziness will probably be due to a pinched nerve in your neck. The radiating pain is probably going to go away with medications. However dizziness is concerning and since you have diabetes also, it complicates the picture. I hope your thyroid is doing good. A visit with your doctor will help relieve your anxiety.
I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
