? shoulder issues: Possibly developing an adhesive capsulitis in right shoulder which can develop in females with thyroid or diabetic issues. Another consideration is Parsonage-Turner Syndrome, affecting the upper brachial plexus. See your doctor, get diagnosed. All of these can be fully resolved with appropriate intervention.

Needs evaluation.: Your complaints suggest irritation of your BRACHIAL PLEXUS something called ADHESIVE CAPSULITIS though this is more UNCOMMON in your age group. Having diabetes is a risk factor for both of these conditions so be sure it's under EXCELLENT control. If it's capsulitis then, it usually resolves over time. Call Parma Neurology @440.842.3816 if you'd like an in-person or telemedicine consult.
