Confused new symptoms: shaking arm, elec pulsing in fingers

i've developed a few new symptoms and am just wondering, esp since i am w/o a TOS doc right now, if you folks make anything of these.

1. i have a sensation of electrical pulsing in my 1st 2 fingertips and the length of my index finger that goes to the base of the thumb. (not the usual little fingers where the neuro pain goes). this pulsing sensation feels somewhat like my TENS unit and is kind of subtle. i notice it most pronounced when i walk. i also have some of this same feeling in the upper arm, like a band around the deltoid, but still most odd in the fingers/finger tips.

2. arm shaking with attempted lower body cardio exercise. i tried an exercise machine slowly and for just a few minutes, using legs only while keeping arms at rest in pockets. when i stopped and noticed my arm starting to swell and that my arm was also shaking.

then there is also the hand pain, especially between the finger muscles along the back of the hand, which i have so often adn that really gets in the way with most any use of my body. i have a feeling this and wrist pain is made more extreme due to such little use of my arms and becoming less fit since yrs of TOS. btw-i dont have carpul tunnel or any other diag. in the hand.

thx for any insights!
