Arm pain/throb

[Tomedward]

I have been feeling rough after a trip to Spain with Flu possible covid and I have noticed a throb and dull pain in my left shoulder and arm much like I did when I have myocarditis and pneumonia in March 2023.Not sure if I am worrying about nothing or if I should talk to someone meaning doctor or hospital..

it’s not for us here to advise whether or not you should see a doctor as we are. It medical people ourselves. Phone 111 if you are unsure.

So sorry you aren’t well. I think you know in your heart of hearts that it’s a good idea to call the gp ir your consultant’s sec. We’ve all been there. So scary when we get ill and we know the snowball effect of calling the gp but if you are ok the relief will be good and if something needs attention, they will do it promptly. Good luck. Xx

Also if it gets worse the doc or 111 would say A and E. Never wasting anyone’s time xx

Although I agree you should contact GP, I asked about shoulder pain in left shoulder on here and it appears very common post ohs. Don’t know if this could apply to your condition.

It seems logical to me to see your GP or go to A&E and get it looked at.

[Furryears]

sorry your not feeling well, yes I would most definitely speak to a doctor or the hospital

You take care

You will be wasting no one's time by talking to a experience medical person. So stop worrying and just do it.❤

prevention is better than cure. Consult a medical professional

How about doing a covid test, they are still available for around £1.50 from Amazon or local chemists. I caught covid last November, at the cardio rehab class! Respiratory symptoms were no worse than a cold, but the muscular and joint pains were massive.

Having said that, given your history, I think you should at least contact your GP or ring 111.

if you still have that ache/pain now call 111 if you can't get a gp appointment today - shoulder, arm, neck and jaw pain are all possible signs that all is not well with your heart and Myocarditis can recurr

let us know how you are

[Redbass]

I would definatly talk to someone. You need advice and reassurance. Phone GP/111 but straight away try the the BHF cardiac nurses are great to ask on the phone helpline..

It is not as common as chest pain but it can be a symptom of a heart attack, Get checked out.
