Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. It seems that there are two unrelated components involved. The first is the electric shock like sensation radiating to your arms. Possibly it is due to cervical spondylosis. You need to get an X ray of cervical spine (AP and lateral) done. Thereafter you need to see a physical therapist who would be able to demonstrate the right exercises that will help you.
About the feeling of heaviness in your tummy, possibly it is due to gastritis or gastroesophageal reflux. In order to relieve yourself, you need to do the following:
* Avoid spicy food. Take small but frequent meals. Avoid long gaps between meals.
* Avoid alcohol intake (if it a part of your habit).
* Take Prilosec (omeprazole) once daily before breakfast.
* Take plenty of green leafy vegetables as well as other sources of dietary fibers. Take fiber supplements like isabgol/psyllium husk or senna. I would insist you to increase your dietary fiber intake.
* Regular morning walk and exercise to keep the bowel movements proper.
* Take curd or yogurt on daily basis. It contains beneficial bacteria and should help.
* Yoga and meditation should help.
You need to be assessed clinically in order to find out if there is a role of your kidney stone as well.
Hope that helps.
Let me know if I could help further.
