Default I want to scream "NOOOOO!!!" really loud.

I just woke up, and discovered a new symptom...not totally new, but something I've never noticed on that particular side of my body.

For the past couple of months I've had numbness on the left side of my body, most notably my left arm and hand.

Well...this morning, I'm noticing some pretty serious tingling in my RIGHT arm and hand. I thought it would go away, that maybe I slept on it...but it hasnt gone away yet, and I've been awake long enough that you'd expect a slept-on arm to have woken up by now.

Moving my head and neck doesnt seem to affect it, so I'm not sure that it would be a L'hermitte's thing. It better go away, and my right arm better not end up totally numb like my left hand/arm. So far tho, it seems to just be tingling.

Moving the arm, without trying to move my head or neck seems to make the tingle a bit stronger tho...wonder why it doesnt seem to do that when I move my head or neck?

I can feel a slight tingle on the radial side of my right arm, just below the elbow, a slight, but more noticable, tingle in the radial side of my right wrist, and my index, middle and ring fingers are the tingly ones. Which seems a bit weird, because in the left arm/hand, the numbness is on the ulnar side of the arm and wrist. Weird.

I do have pain in my upper back, just below the neck, right in my shoulders. I hope that doesnt have anything to do with the tingling arm.

I also have an achy feeling in the right arm...not as bad as what I had in the left arm, but enough to worry me.

This had better go away soon and not end up like the left side has. I dont want to be numb in both hands.
