It sounds like there is nerve impingement to me. Otherwise why would your right arm and hand be numb all the time? How can you "dream" that up? Are they all NUTS or something? Have you had an MRI with and without contrast material? That's what you need so they can SEE the soft tissue.

I hope you get some PROPER treatment soon! You sure need it. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee

I want to be referred to a neurosurgeon but I forgot to ask the doctor last time I saw him.. no more meds for me, I cannot tolerate them my stomach, constipation etc I hate them with passion


I had the mri, cat scan, xrays and everyother test under the sun and was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome and neuropathy and cervicalia due to disk bulge herniated c5 and nerve damage in the same area.
