Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would explain that your symptoms (increased heart rate) could be related to the blood loss and anemia during the DC.
For this reason, I recommend checking your complete blood count for anemia. Regarding the pain in your left shoulder, I would like to review your chest CT scan for a more professional opinion.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
