I believe that I may have TOS.
My hands have been like numb ice for months (no color changes), I've had muscle spasms, stiffness and tremors in them, and lately I've been experiencing a heavy, weak feeling in my arms, especially when blow-drying my hair. No pain to speak of, but stiff muscles. I have loose joints to begin with, and my shoulders "pop" a great deal, especially after computer use. A recent EMG came back clean, but I ran my TOS fears by the neuro anyway, and he said he didn't think so. I also had a vascular test where they put "cuffs" on my arms to measure bloodflow, but I don't have the results yet. Still... What sort of doctor should I be going to? Will I lose the use of my arms/hands? Please...I would appreciate advice from anyone. |
