debbie. i know just how you feel. and i am sorry that you have to go thru this. i am having pain in my right arm more so around the elbow. went to ortho and he said tendernitis.so i am in therapy and the heat ultrasound and biofreeze did help a lot today was the first time. maybe if you see your dr and see what he says. don't put if any longer it will only get worse. it also affects my neck and shoulder. the worse thing about pain is not knowing what is causing it. take care
