Is this odd?

Mom, have you had an MRI of the spine? I haven't had one either, but my torso is numb on the right side, starting at the bra line and tapering off at the waist. I think I must have a lesion in that area.

As to your numbness getting worse, anytime I do stuff - exercise, standing up for a while, painting the kitchen... I pay for it later. Either with muscle aches and cramps, or with numbness. I feel the best when I've had lots of sleep the day prior.

This is probably true, no matter what the underlying condition. When I had carpel tunnel (while pregnant only), the more I typed (or used my wrists), the worse the numbness got.

The trick, at this point, is for them to peg the underlying condition, which may be stemming from your spine.

I have had a MRI of the spine, with & with-out contrast. They said it look good.
Thank you.
