What would cause a lot of pain in my left shoulder after waking up? seems more toward the top.

Position: It sounds like it may have been in an awkward position while you were sleeping - maybe over your head or pinned underneath you. If symptoms go away shortly after you get up, this is probably the case. If not, you may want to get it checked out. Hope this helps!
