If you haven't gone yet, go now. With numbness in both shoulders you may have refractured a bone or something and it is pushing toward your left side of the spinal cord. Any loss of function requires urgent care or the ER. Do not mess around with any loss or numbness above your injury level. The ER will find a neurosurgeon or orthopedic surgeon if needed and a vascular, cardio-thorasic or neurologist/neurosurgeon can deal with strokes too.
