Numbness and shaky feeling
Today has probably been a worst for me in a while. Mondays are always hard, coming back to staring at a computer for 9 hours under flourescent lights isn't helpful, but today is different. When I went out for lunch I couldn't even stop anywhere I felt so unnerved. My legs were shaking when I would pick them up to use the gas and brake pedals, my hands dropping things. I'm having trouble just typing now. It seems to be subsiding a bit now that I am settled in again but wonder if there's anything you guys do to help these symptoms. I haven't dealt with this as strong as it is today. I have lighter feeling in my right side normally but today it is worse and seems to be system wide. Maybe just the fronts coming in? I'm at a loss and just want to climb in bed where I feel safe.
