Hi Vivi fruit,
Dobbler testing and angiogram picked up on my arterial/venous occlusions when arms raised and back or out to the side.
Vascular doc for these issues.
Best wishes and try as much as possible to relax your muscles with gentle stretching and meditation maybe?
Symptoms can very easily get the better of you and make you depressed so try and take back some control. EXAMPLE: tonight my ears ( pulsatile tinnitus) are driving me absolutely crazy!!!!!!! Such a loud pulsing sound.
So I'm gonna try to imagine that I can hear rhythmic waves crashing against the sands of a Maldivian island instead..... what else can you do????
KEEP STRONG! xxxxx
