Just got back from a spinal doctor today. Those of you who have followed my little adventure, I suspected that I had a neck injury after reading about Sidney Crosbey and his recovery. After doing some neck exercises, I experienced some relief, but then a return in symptoms. Today, the doctor confirmed that I have a herniated C3, and then something else that I don't remember the name of, but basically meant that another vertebrate wasn't seated correctly. He said that my symptoms, tingling in left arm, cognitive problems, mental exhaustion, sleep problems, could certainly be explained by this diagnosis.

Starting PT soon! Feels great to finally have a diagnosis, and to know I'm not crazy.

I've said it before and I'll say it again... if you are having the aforementioned problems, be sure to have a neck injury investigated as a possible cause by a trained specialist. I self-diagnosed and tried to treat it on my own, which didn't work very well Good to now be in the hands of professionals, and hopefully getting better very soon!
