Thanks :)
This guy seems to know what he is on about, and at £90 a pop I would ruddy well hope so. :eek:
The bit he's trying to pinpoint is why I wake in the night with both arms "dead" from fingertips to elbows (irrespective of sleeping position).
The poor result in the "Fukuda Stepping Test" (I kid you not) indicates a problem with signaling up/down the spinal cord on one side.
None of this is life-threatening (as far as I know) but I have taken a downward turn just recently and I put it down to overdoing it on the DIY/Kid's-DIY front.
But it isn't getting any better so I need to get stuff fixed if I can.
Best of luck with it mate.
So much stuff to do with spines is indicated by referred pain or numbness, as in your case. I am surprised he said your problem was only to do with one side, as if both arms are concerned then the prob ought to come from about the same group of vertebrae, between the shoulderblades being my first guess.
Has he suggested a chiro?
As you can tell from my typos, the fingers in my left hand are numb-ish.
I am now up to 60 mgs of morphine.
So having diagnosed the main problem your bod ought to be able to come up with a treatment plan.
Really do hope you make progress on this.
all the very best
Stan.
 
If you find out please tell me as I have that in my left arm every morning. I had some tests but they were inconclusive. My spine has some compaction but they dismissed it as not causing those symptoms.
Take it easy and I really hope you bounce back!
Spinal compaction is totally normal as you get older. I used to be 5' 10 1/2 " but am now 5' 9". Your discs compress, basically. You seem to have a problem very similar to mine. See if you can get your right hand down to the vertebrae between your shoulder blades and have a push around, you may feel one is off to one side or sticking out further than another. something a chiro should be able to sort for you.
Best of luck!

I licked your posts coz of the obvious, sympathies to the pair of you.

An, by the way Stan, praps you should avoid France next year?
Jus sayin..
France int the issue, trying to sort out the frigging noise coming from the Disco I think has caused it, lying unnerneef it lifting the top half of my bod slightly off the ground while spannering has, I think, done that particular vertebra in. But if we had two cars there would be less pressure on me to get it done, so yes, being in France caused that.
We are just even more determined to get a car trailer to put Wifey's on when we come next year!
And yes, I did get the irony!!!;););)
 
Anyway, despite the fact that the ten dsy forecast over here shows about 7 days of rain, here is summt to make yez laugh!

Wifey has gone into the money laundering business!!:D:D
Remember that €80 euros that went missing?
It turned up in the washing machine!:oops::oops::oops:
I must have put it in a shirt pocket, (thing i normally never do) and although she goes through me troosis pockets, this one, she missed.;)

and it's completely intact, just a bit cleaner!!!:):):):)

Result!!!!!:D:D:D:D:D
