Traci, I have some of the same symptoms you describe, and I thought it was my neck. I have scoliosis, too, and have had neck problems for many years. My arms will tingle and hurt up to my shoulders. Turns out, from a nerve study that was done, it is all caused by carpal tunnel pressure in both hands, and a little tennis elbow in my right arm. They said there is no nerve damage, yet, and that I need the surgery to relieve the pressure, and that should solve it. I have put off doing anything until after Melissa's wedding. Then I will get another opinion and review options. The chiropractors I saw could not help this and had suggested that it could be carpal tunnel, but I did not believe it until the nerve study. Hope this helps.
