After another doctors meeting and more to follow, the dreaded MS was broached.

[shockedcanadian]

Had a numb hand out of nowhere for a week. No relief, tried every trick.

Pray for me, I know something isn't right.

 

[The Duke]

I hope it's not MS.

 

[shockedcanadian]

I hope it's not MS.

That makes two of us. I am actually more frightened than I have been in the past. The last week has been eye opening and unexpected.

 

[The Irish Ram]

Did they do any tests? When will you know?

 

[shockedcanadian]

Did they do any tests? When will you know?

I meet a neurologist in over a month. I am praying to G-d to at least remove the numb hand (its half the hand but nothing has improved it, not hot water, raising the hand etc).

 

[The Irish Ram]

A month?
How numb? Could it be carpal tunnel?

Right or left?

 

[shockedcanadian]

How numb? Could it be carpal tunnel?

I proposed that idea, but the numbness coincided with the pain behind my eye. Also, I tried to massage certain areas of the arm and elbow that would indicate carpal tunnel without any help.

The doctor didnt say it was MS but she did suggest it is a possibility of course. She told me that the neurologist will have all of the details going back two years.

 

[shockedcanadian]

Right or left?

Left eye pain right hand numbness.

 

[Arlette]

Left eye pain right hand numbness.

The right is probably your jacking off hand. Just take it easy for a while or let one of them battery operated sleeves do the work for you. I would be more worried about pain in an eye

I dont want to go blind.

I don't doubt it. See a doctor

I'm seeing several after they messed with me for years. Even this doctor was surprised about the incorrect MRI.

 

[HikerGuy83]

All the best....

Will remember you in prayer.

It’s probably not MS. Try to calm down a little bit, just focus on breathing in and out for a few minutes.

Are you a side sleeper? I have hand problems from sleeping on my side, I sleep on my back only now then the hand problem heals. Hot pack that you heat up in the microwave, apply that 4 times a day. Not too hot just hot enough. I’ve just healed a numb thigh that way. I would wake up and my whole thigh was totally numb. I would do the heat pack on the whole shoulder and all the way down. As hand issues generally are from the shoulder area or arm.

The heat will increase circulation. Buy a herbal bottle of pills thats for increased circulation. I bought a veins clear one as those herbs really got my circulation working properly.

Don’t stress. You are ok.

I tried the hot water on my hand bit multiple times. No success. Raising hand above my head, keeping my arm straight etc. The hand is also weaker due to the numbness on one side.

It's all of the other symptoms combined that cause the fear in me. You have to understand, I am a former athlete and for years I was healthy beyond my years. Even now I look much younger than I am for the most part (unless I grow a beard where grey shows).

The head pains, especially above and behind the eye coupled with a week of numb hand is frightening. Recall I was hospitalized twice already for numbness down one side of my body and the eye symptoms of MS usually occur in one eye which is what I experience.

 

[Mister Iggy]

shockedcanadian hope you find the right doctor. You are in my thoughts and prayers! I think you will be ok.

Here is my fear, I am have been looking at the sympoms of MS and I am more worried. Nine days and my hand is still numb and it had tingling often for months on and off. I just thought it was arthritis and i would just open.and close.my hand to.improve circulation. Then there is the very unique "body tingling" i used to get from.time to time. Id be lying down and it felt like millions of pin pricks around different parts of my body, I told my wife about this too. Not long after I had the left side numbness that caised me to not be able to walk.(as my legs went weak) and I needed to go to the hospital. The slurred words I used to get, the pain behind my eye after active movement such as a jog or doing push ups. I cant believe I was worried about a brain aneurysm but it could be much, much worse. Pray for me please.

shockedcanadian dont give up trying to work out what’s wrong, doctors can be useless unless its obvious to them. I self diagnosed a health problem years ago, via the internet and google, that doctors missed and i got treatment through natural medicine and healed it. Sometimes natural is best.

I dont know, but I knew for over a year that this was serious. Prayers would be welcome. Even if you dont be!ieve, prayers are still heard if there is a G-d.
