Does a tremor cause pain?

I had never had any health problems until 2015, when i slipped a diac causing sciatica. Since 2016 i have had increasing symptoms that come and go. Symptoms are pins and needles, numbness, lightheades, offbalance, feeling uncoordinated and now headaches.

I've had a problem with my left arm for over a year. When i use it to do repetative things (like hanging clothes, peeling veg) it feels really uncoordinated, then i get pain and a shaky feeling, which makes it hard to use my arm. Dr's haven't really taken much notice and have said it's a problem in my shoulder or neck. An mri showed no nerve issues at my neck. I saw a neurologist last week for the first time, i was doing the touch my nose then his finger test and he said i have a tremor in that arm. I am now waiting on a brain mri.

I can't find any info on tremor and pain at the same time (i didn't mention this to the neurologist as i was shocked and a bit overwhelmed at all the tests and questions). Does it sound like a tremor? or caused by a problem with my shoulder? I do get shoulder pain sometimes.

Thanks
