I Have An Acute Severe Stabbing Pain From My Left

I have an acute severe stabbing pain from my left scapula through my left armpit. The ongoing pain is very easily aggravated by any movement. Then, I'll get a pain that feels like a knife going in in the armpit area...it's among one of the worst pain I've experienced, and I've experienced a lot of pain. This started out slowly with just a tight muscle feeling in and under the scapula, and daily got worse. I have DDS with two back fusions, L-5/S-1 and L-2/L3, neck fused C3-C7. I had a compression fracture of the L-1 vertabrae a few months ago. I have a regular neurosurgeon who's done most of my ten surgeries. I have an orthopedic doctor due to my very thin bones which have resulted in three leg bone, ankle, and metatarsul fractures. I'm trying to figure out if I need to go back to my chiropractor for some work (he only uses an activator to do minor movements), or to my surgeon for tests. Any help you can offer?

Thanks,
Elizabeth
