General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
If cardiac cause of this is ruled out then you should look for some other disorders and in first case, neurologic issues such as vertebral degeneration and nerve compression. So you should do xrays or MRi scan of cervical spine. Last cause my be circulatory issues due due atherosclerosis of arm vessels.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
