This is not in just patches, its completely in whole upper body, like if it was slept on feeling.

I hope something could be done...have you talked to your neuro abou it yet?
I called my neuro today (and he wasnt there...argh!) because my right foot has been a bit numb the past few days, and last night and this morning it was really really annoying. It also felt like the numbness was going up into my knee.
Right after I called him and left a message, it started to feel a bit better. It's still UNpleasantly numb, but not as horrible as it was last night. I'm still going to see what Dr. Neuro says when he calls me back tomorrow. I dont know if I should call Dr. Regular Doctor and see if he has any suggestions for what to do. (like a UA to see if I have a UTI)
It's just annoying to have an appendage that feels so bizarre and you either just want to rip it off, or jab it with an IV of solumedrol and hope it wakes up and stays awake.
