I m 67 and sometimes get a dull pain in my upper arms and shoulders, which normally lasts for just a few minutes. I m just finishing such a bout that came on about 10 minutes ago as I was lying in bed waiting for sleep. It caused severe aching in both arms and and shoulders. Most intense experience yet.
