What Causes Left-sided Shoulder Pain, Heart Burn And Vomiting?

My 79 yo mother has has several weird symptoms the last few days. At the moment she came to my in excruciating pain in left shoulder blade and trapezius area. Said she couldn t move arm. She didn t sleep at all last night but normally sleeps well. Thursday night she was fine then ate a small dinner of lobster bisque soup, a martini (not normal for her) and a few bites of dessert. Within an hour she had sever heartburn that she said burned all the way up to her ears . Then ended up throwing up violently w diarrhea all night. In morning said she was fine. Afternoon after soup and half sandwich fine but within a half hour was violently throwing up again w same type of heartburn just prior. Fine last couple days but didn t eat much (rarely does).
