Hello everyone
Just to get you up to speed... Had C5-7 fusion back in March of '07. Went back to work driving a tractor trailer in the end of June. Today while driving I had my complete left arm go numb as well as my left side of my face. Being a volly I left work and went down to the FD so I could be looked at. (rule out a heart condition or stroke). all checked out ok. I am waiting for a call back from my Neuro with which I already have a scheduled appointment for Monday. Anyone experience these symtems for a neck injury? I also continue to have bad neck, shoulder, and upper back pain
.
I was hoping by working I would get all the "kinks" out but I think it's digressing. I'll see what the doc says and will report back.
This is the first day I had to go home because of the pain. I usually got through the day somehow. at least I have a 3 day weekend to recoup.
Hoping everyone a pain free day
Be Well
