the very best thing you can do is to get your parents to take you back to the doctor to discuss your CT scan and you can tell him your concerns

did you know that even stress can cause the symptoms you are describing...
it may just be that you are so worried that you are getting what is known as "psychosomatic" symptoms

often, when we read up on stuff on the Internet, we can imagine the worst!

I hope your doctor will be able to set your mind at rest

Aw, there's not much we can do from online! You need to talk to your parents and see the doctor! You're making me feel bad, I have two sons! :girl(sad): Talk to your parents or talk to the school nurse if this happens at school. :hug:

Sometimes those activities can cause symptoms in your arms- the nerves or blood flow can get affected by the static postures. { not a lot of movement to keep things flowing like they should.}


sleeping with arms in certain positions can make your arms go numb.
a certain % of people will lose the blood flow to the arms when arms are above the head.


If the drs, testing and your parents feel you are ok -- then the next step is to talk with parents about your extreme anxiety on this health issue.

Well, I think you should have your blood sugar tested.

You could be starting with diabetes. Type II now is showing up in teens, and you mention you are overweight. I'd get that checked
for sure.

hey Austin,

You have been given some great replies, but one thing that really i have to question is your benzo use, as you did say you in a few post above you were on a 2 week benzo withdrawal, and they are a serious medicine and depending on your usage the withdrawal could be possibly responsible for a lot of your issues.
Please talk with your doc's about it, and also if you have a problem with over taking med please check into other support groups , they have young peoples recovery groups all over the place.
Just a thought. I wish you the best , Please be careful.

Ouch
