Suggest Treatment For Severe Shoulder Pain And Numbness In The Finger

65 year old patient with a pacemaker, why am I having pain in shoulder near the surgery site and numbness in my fingertips? I also experience night sweats, fatigue, and rapidly lose 20 pounds in the last two months, since surgery. Why is this happening to me?
