[|Human|] Help. I am in severe pain from behind my left shoulder blade all the way down my left arm and tingling fingers. I have previously been diagnosed with a couple discs out and arthritis. In 2007. This pain began a month ago and I have tried everything I know of. Starting to effect my breathing. Wake up in major pain. Thank you, Shannon
[|AI|]  Hello welcome to Ask A Doctor service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. You can have Compressive neuropathy and by nerve compression pain and tingling can occur. MRI scan can be done to rule out it. Pregabalin prescribed for neuropathic pain. If needed surgical management done for nerve compression. Investigate with vitamin B12 and blood sugar as well. Investigate with chest x-ray as some dyspnea also present. I suggest you to consult physician for examination. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
