Thanks Judy. I have 4 docs working on this! The Neurosurgeon is the best in this part of the country. I trust him. After the EMG tomorrow, he will have all the tests in and hopefully he can put all these pieces together and come up with a game plan.

I asked the ortho doc yesterday what he thought about cause. What could have precipitated this event. He said age, wear and tear, nothing, MS, hard to tell. There is definitely more than one thing going on. There is a pinched nerve at the C3/4 and possibly one lower, T5/6.

It's the upper arm that is causing so much pain right now and that's what's puzzling the docs.

I will let keep you all posted. This is just so weird..but typical me!
