painful arm :(

Hi all wanted to ask u all a quick question if I may I thought I was finally turning the corner last nite as my weird feeling n buzzing in my right leg seems to be lifting a lil (yay) but now my right arm is killing flu like pains n aching with pins n needles in my fingers on/off does any1 else find as 1 area seems to clear up/lift that they find they get something in a different area :frowning: I’m not dx yet so it’s not a drug side effect many Thanx Lou :slight_smile:

Hello Lou,

Before I was dx with SPMS for years I would get different symptom, sometimes my feet would be killing me to walk to the point of wanting to cry with the pain. Another time my arms would ache like mad. Always, always felt tired and needed to have an afternoon nap, which was difficult with a toddler. Pains around my chest, the list is endless. But for all of what I have said does not mean that you to have MS it could be something else. Have you seen your gp to try and answer your questions or even get a referral to a neuro. I feel for you as it’s not nice being in limboland. Take care and good luck.

hi Janet I have seen my GP and have got an appointment with the neuro in jan (hoping to get a cancellation b4 then tho) my arm seemed to last for just over a day very painful n nout would shift it but touch wood it seems to have lifted finally :slight_smile: So here’s to another day of resting I guess esp after slightly pushing myself to much on Saturday n thinking I could manage to go and do some window shopping "/ as a result I spent most of the day in bed yest with the numbness spreading in my foot "/. the joys eh :slight_smile: stay well n warm Lou :slight_smile: x

Hello Lou,

Am pleased to hear that you have an appointment to see a neuro, one little tip, ring planned care and say to them that if there is a cancellation would you please consider me as I can go at any time. It does work. Good luck and hope your pain eases for you and rest, rest and more rest.

Thanx Janet :slight_smile: I will be calling the hosp every 2/3 days like the nice lady on appointments advised me to try so fingers crossed :slight_smile: My arm is fine again now thanx very strange indeed lol im still resting u’ll be pleased to hear dont have much choice really lol as my body is refusing to comply with anything i would like to do other than sleeping "/ but its all good lets face it, it could be hell of a lot worse now could’nt it lou :slight_smile: xx

Yes, I agree. There is always someone worse off. When my gp apologised for not wanting to tell me the news, I said to her, the day I was diagnosed someone, somewhere will have been told they have a day, a week, a month to live. Puts it into perspective, doesnt it?

Good morning Mrs H Yes it does indeed :slight_smile: I hope u have a better day today n enjoy ur can of soup lol it did tickle me reading ur post lol :smiley: Today I’m mostly nursing a cold which has managed to get in under the radar I wonder now if that’s why I’ve been feeling worse for the past few days whilst its been working its way out "/ Anyhoo onwards n upwards keep smiling stay warm and be careful Lou :slight_smile: x
