What Causes Pain In Left Arm?

last Friday I was seen in ER for chest pain that had been ongoing for two days . Left side into left chest. Did EKG, chest x-ray and blood test. Doctor didn't think heart issue but said I should get stress test as she could rule out for sure. Pain continued through weekend and today I saw my family doctor and he also does not think it is my heart. Tonight started having pain in left arm, primarily my tricep. 49 year old male with type 1 diabetes.
