Hi Jo; Nice to hear from you again. It seems very hard for me to get a proper diagnosis. At this time I am on a Physiatrist's caseload. My surgeon that did my bilateral carpal tunnel releases, suggested a scalene compression of the plexus, and mild cervical compression @ c5@c6. Worker's comp. pain Doctor said it was all repetitive strain injury all myofascial pain. Feels like starting all over again!! It 3 years in treatment on @ off. I have been doing gentle range of motion exercises for my arms,shoulder's,wrists and of course for my cervical spine. I start out with heat for my shoulder, neck, and after have some ultra sound on my neck, shoulder's, scapula area. Now some c spine traction and I finish with ice. I am doing my stretches and exercises 3 times a day. So far everything is ok, little increase in pain but really surprisingly ok!!!
Take care, keep in touch Jo!!
