It ruled out anything nasty for the cause of the visible and palpable
lump on my upper arm. But I am interested to know whether what is
visible on this X ray potentially explains arm weakness, muscle
wasting (biceps) and reduced reflexes in the arm. My MRI on the
neck dismissed the initial suspicion of prolapse and cervical nerve
root compromise. So I am now wondering about a more "local"
explanation.

I have managed to get the doc to agree to test brachial plexus ,
and in the meantime, I got this X ray and wanted to see what people
think
