I feel your frustration. Too often, doctors lean toward treating the symptom ("here, have some Imitrex for the migraine and a muscle relaxant for the arm pain") without finding the cause.

I have had a MRI of cspine; shoulder; and arm. And when I was only suffering of migraines I have had a Ct. All were normal findings
