You might ask them about Parsonage Turner Syndrome. The most common symptoms sound similar to what you say. PTS can also cause collapse of the shoulder to the point that thoracic outlet syndrome can happen. Mainly, it is pain followed by muscle atrophy. Weak muscles can lead to shaking. This is not necessarily restricted to the arm where pain happened. It can cause weakness all over.

Along with this he has been getting twitching in all of his extremities and is quite tired. It is an effort for him to do anything because this is his dominant arm. He has since seen a Neuologist and had an EMG. Also normal. The Neurologist told him that he has tennis elbow and that the twitching everywhere is unrelated. He is going to see an Orthopeadic Doctor next week. Anyone have any idea of what might be going on?  :confused |
