Experiencing Chronic Pain Around Left Shoulder And Neck Region
I have chronic pain around my left shoulder and neck region. I have had several scans and the latest was a nerve test. The neurologist referred me to a vascular specialist. I am waiting to see the specialist. This weekend I have experienced stabbing pain in my left buttock region and left leg pain. In the past my heart rate dropped to the 40 s and nobody could figure out why. Also experienced dizziness. They ruled out heart problems but stated I had a hole in my heart but because only three bubbles passed during the test I was told to quit looking any further. This was three to four years ago. It is affecting my life. Pain everyday.

Hi,
The chronic pain of the neck and shoulder could be:
- Spondeliarthorsis with mean the body of the vertebra with their articulation are damaged
- an hernieted vertebral disc
- thoracic outlet syndrome/scalene syndrome.
- boursitis of the shoulder (probably something from the shoulder. Only an orthopedics or neurosurgeon can do a differential diagnosis
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rezart Cipi
