Hi,
As per hour complain you have problem of sharp pain at left shoulder that may be because of cardiac condition. Cardiac arrest or angina cause sharp pain at left side of shoulder. That one warning sign of it. Consult a physician for further diagnosis. ECG can done for further diagnosis. Detail history and physical examination give exact idea about problems.
I hope my guidance is helpful to you. Let me know if I can assist you further.
