I have experienced tingling sensations mainly on the underside of my forearm since last summer., but also traveling tingling here and there in my arm. I only felt if when on the computer which I only used for a short period of time each instance. My GP didn't send me to a specialist but recommended an EMG which I had to wait for an appt. 5 months to be exact but the doc retired before I could see him. I saw an occupational therapist who said if it is compressed it may work itself out if I changed positions on the computer. She failed to tell me that it could be pinched in my elbow. She retired too. Last Friday I had tingling from the top of my hand all the way up my arm. Then the tingling went to my ring finger and pinky. But I also had tingling on top of my hand near my thumb. It lasted all day and I refrained from using the computer since. I have then had slight pain in my wrist and hand/fingers.
(I feel I have not had the typical symptoms of ulner nerve entrapment.) What is scaring me is the feeling of muscle straining or weakness of sorts when I do everyday stuff. This started last Friday. When I raise my arm above my head it almost feels like my arm will fall asleep, then I feel a muscle burn. My chiropractor wants an MRI which I need my GP order. I was just hoping to hear any information/comments that about the muscle strain and RSI. I do not feel any tingling or pain since I have refrained from sitting at my computer desk. Sorry for the long post. I posted here because it appears there is not much activity in the RSI subgroup of TOS group. I am also visiting the TOS posts too. Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk |
