Confused please help! i have severe pain in my entire right arm & upper spine. something's wro

Hello, my name is Stephanie, i am new to this site. I will give a brief (the best i can) rundown of what i am going thru. Im 29 yrs old, i have always been veey active all my life. I was hit by a car (walking across the st) when i was 16. Never got checked by a Dr. tho. I had a HUGE bruise on my left hip the size of a softball & my feet & ankles swelled & i couldn't walk for a few days. My shoulder & upper spine ached a bit. But i just kept going. About 7/8 yrs ago i began exexperiencing pain in my.upper & lower back. But nothin too bad. The last 2 yrs have been rough, the last 14 months have been hell! I started getting severe sharp pains in my shoulder. As if im being stabbed w/a knife. No matter how i sit,lay,stand, its excruciating & unbearable! I get the same pain in my elbow, lateral & medial, along with burning & aching. My wrist & hand are very painful as well. The skin on my hand is SUPER sensitive & the slightest touch is excruciating! I have to keep cracking & shaking out my arm bc it hurts so bad. The pain at night is awful. Im lucky if i sleep a solid 1-2 hours. The pain will wake me from my sleep. I can't tolerate any cold (water, ice, cold air etc) on my hand esp. My shoulder has significantly "dropped" & my entire arm has significant atrophy. Very noticeable, which has happened over the last 5 monts apprx. My spine (between shoulers) feels like its being squeezed & twisted. I get pains in the base of my skull, dizzy & lightheaded when i get up from a seated or laying down position. I occasionally get sharp electric type pains that feel like they're in my brain. My left eyelid twitches & my vision goes blurry. I've lost grip strength & I'm constantly dropping things. Memory problems along with anxiety. Im very irritable lately (beyond the norm). I get twitches in my forearm & sometimes my left thigh. I've also noticed that my speech is off sometimes & I've had minor trouble pronouncing some words. Thats pretty much what i can recall as far as my symptoms are concerned. Im just looking for advice and opinions. I would truly appreciate any feedback that you all can give me. Im really scared. I know my body & i know something is really wrong. Please help. Ill answrr any and all questions. Thank you so much.
