My symptoms are:
constant throbbing pain in right shoulder with random stabbing pains
right arm aches and feels like it just doesn't "fit" right
right hand gets cold with elevation or use
numbness & tingling in right pinky & ring finger
stabbing, burning pain in underarm area
tenderness over clavicle and pec area
scalene muscle has feeling of tightness
headaches that start at back of head & over right side of head
feeling that left side of throat is being "slashed"
dizziness when I move my head
loss of dexterity in right hand
burning pain over scapula
swelling in right hand
color changes in right hand


tests that have been done:
MRI of rotator cuff - normal
cervical xrays - normal
EMG - normal (did not do with arm in positions that cause symptoms)
CT - normal (was done with arm down at side)
ultrasound - normal (the tech who did this had no clue what she was doing, she had a book out and even said she didn't understand how to position me)
shoulder xray - normal

I've had 17 sessions of PT since October and have only been able to tolerate very minimal stretching....chin tucks, shoulder shrugs, that sort of thing.
