Hi Lesa , sorry to hear your going through all this . I just have dystonia of the vocal cords but lately over the last 3/4 months I've been suffering from bad pain in my left arm , shoulder and really bad pins n needles in my hand . The Drs say I've torn/pulled my tendon but not a clue how but the treatment they are doing isn't working . I hope that you get sorted out soon and know that your not alone hunny xxx
