When I was dealing with the rebound headaches, I had a lot of jaw tightness. Especially when I had overused the Midrin. Also, had problems with the muscle pain on the left side of my neck, as well as shoulder. There were times this did affect my left arm as well. To this day (several years later), I still have some problems with the left side of neck and shoulder; just not as severe.
.
To be on the safe side; I would definitely discuss this with your doctor.

In this case, I'd be inclined to agree with your doctor. Headaches from DDD are usually from the cervical (neck) area (like mine). A simple x-ray (not CT) can often image that.

TMJD can cause migraines and some of your other symptoms too.
