Last night i woke up three times to my arm being in severe pain and numbness but went away within 15 seconds what could this be?

Lying on it: That's a very short time to suffer - surprising that you even remembered it. But the position you were in may have been the cause. It does occur to me that the medications you take can interact w/ each other badly and each can cause muscle or joint pain alone. You may want to ask your provider if they are all needed and if the doses are right for you. Relax.
