question: Hello doctor, I am a 45 year old male. When I lie on my left side and raise my left arm, then try to push down on this arm using my right hand, I feel pain in the upper left arm. I am unable to push all the way back. However, when I try the opposite, that is, lying on my right side pushing down on the right arm with the left, I feel no pain and can push all the way down. I had experienced pain and muscle weakness on the left upper arm and lower arm since the past eight years when I was given the swine flu shot. It has only got worse over the years. I have pain in other areas on the left side of the body like in the back and the groin when standing for long periods of time like at a concert. I have type 1 diabetes since 22 years. Any ideas? Also, I have suffered from dizzy spells in the past 12 months. This happens when I am awake at night. I then have a feeling like a lot of adrenaline is in my body, my legs are getting weak like I am going to pass out and a difficulty in breathing. Eventually, it passes.
