weakness in arms, joint stiffness and tingling/shoes, too

[Guest guest]

 I do not have a syrinx. My right hand felt like a block of wood prior to

surgery. That symptom disappeared for many years after surgery. I started to

have occasional problems with it again last year. I occasionally have problems

with my right foot and numbness. (I don't feel this when the shoe is off. This

foot used to drag.)  My opinion is that when my neck is bent too much, from

sleeping on too thick of a pillow and spending too much time on the computer,

these symptoms increase.

I have to add my two cents to what Sally said about those shoes. I wonder if

someone who is having balance problems would have worse problems with those

shoes.  I would hate for people to spend money on them to fall off. Maybe I'm

being a little dramatic, but I am certainly glad I no longer have those kinds of

problems.
