I have severe aching pain above elbow, below shoulder area.

I don't believe it is joint pain or arthritis as the pain is strictly confined, in BOTH arms, to the upper arm area between my shoulder and my elbow. It is especially severe when I bend or flex my arms, like when I fold them under my pillow to sleep at night. I can flex my muscles without pain and work out at the gym without pain. However, the ache pain is severe at times and I'm wondering what on earth it could be. Anyone experience anything similar? I lost 156 pounds since 9/28/91 WLS surgery but have stabilized now.
