Default Hi Momz....

It sounds to me like your nerves are very irritated and are starting to retaliate. Has your Dr been able to run any type of test that can show you where the compressions are happening?
Here is one of the threads that DiMarie started that shows the Brachial Plexus nerves and there direction of travel.

I believe you said you are allergic to pain meds but are you able to take anti depressants and/or anti seizure medications. Many TOSers/Neuropathic pts are placed on anti depressants for there nerve pain. They increase the action of serotonin and nor epinephrine, two naturally occurring chemicals in the body. When they work together they can turn down pain messages being sent from the damaged nerves to the spinal cord therefore helping to minimize the nerve pain.
They all have some side effects and not all of them work for everyone but when you find the right one it can work wonders for your nerve related pain.
Definitely call your Dr and make him aware of the situation.
I know all of this sucks... Meds help but then you have such a hard time with most of them. Keep using Ice and Heat, warms baths and gentle stretches if you’re able. Where you able to get a hold of some bio freeze... Great stuff for those nasty muscle aches.
Keep us posted I hope your day goes better...
Many Gentle Hugs
Dawn
