I have been waking up in the mornings when I sleep on my side and my arms and hands are totally asleep. If I change position, they do come out of it. Why are they doing this now? What is this a sign of? Has anyone else had this problem? It really scares me. Also, my feet are starting to hurt after a day of activities with my kids yesterday. I am so worried about going back to my job of teaching in about a month and a half. I would have to apply for state teachers retirement for disability when the time arises, but I am turning 35 in August. I am so young and struck with this disease. They will probably deny me if a apply in the coming years because of my age. Anyone else apply for disability at a young age? Danielle
