What Causes Sharp Radiating Pain From Shoulder To Fingers At Night?

I have experienced numbing of my arms while sleeping for the last several years. However, the pain that I am experiencing now is much different and keeps me awake for hours. I have pain that feels like rebar (metal spikes) shooting down my arms from my shoulders to my fingers. THe right arm is worse than the left at this point. I had a stress test a couple months backs when it first started in my left arm. My heart is healthy. 58 year old female.
