Post AVR, aching of arms

I had my AVR in March 2017 (mechanical) followed by a stroke that has made my left side a bit numb. Recently I have experienced a painful aching of my arms, particularly of my right arm that woke me up this morning that lasted a couple of minutes. Its possible I may have a descending aorta bulge (waiting for scan results). I will mention it when I am seen to discuss the scan results, but in the meantime I Just wondered if anyone else had this sensation and what they did about it?
