I finally started getting stronger because I am on a more strict diet and I am working out consistently, and now my arm starts hurting. It sucks!

I guess I will start going lighter. What do you think I should start at. Currently I am repping 35's for dumbell curls and around 85 lbs on preacher curls and standing barbell curls. Reps are anywhere from 6-10.

I really dont see a need to see a doctor, it sounds exactly like what I had, and alot of people get at some point during the 1st year of working out.

No dont lift a weight that hurts, do like 5 lbs dumbells, if that hurts then use no weight at all, just stay in your routine. Each bicep workout increase the weight a little. If it hurts too bad, then you've increased too much. I had the pain for months until I started working out like I'm advising, then and only then did it start to get better.
