Guest guest Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 I have more than just tingling and the carpal tunnel tests were negative. I drop things all the time. My limbs go completely numb. My hand, arm and one of my legs have become 'paralyzed?' on a few different occassions. Couldn't open my hand for about 45 seconds. Couldn't raise my arm up for about 60 seconds. Couldn't move my leg for about 60 seconds... Scares me because I am afraid that one of these times the movement won't come back. Let me know what your hubby's neuro says. I've been debating on whether or not to go see one. Thanks Alenna----------------------Site Mod alenna@...

I will be seeing my hubby's Nuro. in the new year. to see if I do have MS.. I am pretty sure I do not.. I am pretty up on MS and it's symptom's and all that.. I do half to have an MRI of the brain to see about MS and also they are checking for an anurisum because of my migrain headache's.. Gentle Caring Hug's Marie Marie A. Roomsburg P.O.

While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain health conditions or just dangerous in general.2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation better.Have a nice day everyone.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Hi Alenna, I have a leg that goes numb and I have drop foot in that leg. I have a cane that I use when I'm out doing errand and such. It does help. It may be that it's just that I feel I have something there in case my leg acts up. My problem with the leg is from nerve damage and all the surgeries done to my lumbar spine. Kathleen in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Alenna, Don't mean to butt in, but have you had an MRI of your spine. What you are describing sounds like a spine issue. hugs, Sundra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
