lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Pain in the left side of the chest and radiating to left arm can be due to problem related to heart of it may just a muscular pain. Is the pain more or gets precipitated with exercise? It is better if he under goes certain investigations like ECG, echocardiogram and if needed a stress test. First and foremost is he should achieve a strict blood glucose control with fasting glucose < 100 mg, PP 150 to 160 mg & HbA1c% < 6.8. Thanks.
