Hi Dear
Went through your history you have mentioned that the symptoms are only in upper limbs the most common reason for such symptoms is cervical spondylosis you need to avoid prolonged neck bending start sustained release pregablin 75mg once a day preferably during bed time and get an x ray of cervical spine done to confirm the diagnosis
