I have written you regarding my spontaneous coronary artery dissection which occured on Oct 6, 1998. I now am having lots of pain in my arms both left and right. I notice that the pain is in the shoulder,elbow and especially the wrist. I do sometimes have the pain in between the shoulder and elbow. I never had any pain like this before the heart attack. My doctor tested me for rhematiod arthritis when I had this type of heart attack and it was negative. I now have 6 stents in the RCA could the pain be related in some way? Thank you so much.
