pain in my right upper, inner arm... stabbing/shooting pains.

[chikaa]

i was ttc with my husband in april... but got my period on 22nd of april and im bleeding till now. I know that ectopic pregnancy can cause a pain on the shoulder tip, but can it cause a stabbing/shooting pain in the upper inner arm?? koz i been having for days now this 1-2 second stabbing pain in my arm.

Normally its in the shoulder tip hun. I would think its most likely not related as the pain in the shoulder is referred pain caused from internal bleeding from the ectopic rupturing. I didnt get the rupture with mine so cant comment more on that element xx

(also forgot to add, you would probably be having some element of positives on a pregnancy test as an ectopic does produce HCG as it burrows somewhere it shouldnt) xx
