Hi everyone inhishands I have what you have going on with my upper body my arm and shoulder I have weakness in my arm and cannot move my arm up above my shoulder. Sorry I have RSD/and TOS my doctors are confused since my RSD and TOS are in the same general area, the overlape each other.
I have muscle twitches, jerking and lose of strength in my arm hand and shoulder.
My muscles jerking more of late is because my PT was wanting to work to hard on my strength, so I stopped her and the twiches are not as bad but I fear they will not leave me now.Inhishands I also have what they say is muscle gaurding and my muscles tight 24-7 and when they flare it is even worse :( I hope we can talk about it together and find out togetther..

If it's medical then they don't bother treating till you have a disease.

If it's social then they don't care about the disease, just what the symptoms are and how they should be managed.

Have you asked about trying Baclofen?

Love ya tons

I think social, but might be wrong... I don't know too much about it. I do think that medical plays a role in it too though. :confused: :confused: (anyone who knows, please say so!)

My PM Drs. have already stated that until I see other specialists and they are sure it's RSD that they won't add or change meds.. However, they do agree that diazipam is old and outdated to use, and they would like to change some medications.

Cool, thanks for telling me! I was just wondering... :wink:
