It does sound worth it to check out any neck problems with your arm weakness.

Basically i have never found anything that helps with weakness. I use a variety of orthotic devices, plus I walk with a walker and use a wheel chair at times. I go to the gym three times a week, so i know that i am as strong as i can possibly be, but I have never regained any strength that i have lost. I have recently lost most of the strength in my left quad muscles which is really difficult as it makes picking up my leg difficult. I can only lift it about one inch off the floor despite doing exercises to try and improve the strength.

oh well, nothing much i can do about it - i have motor involvement along with my neuropathy (sensorimotor axonal neuropathy).

cheers
