I woke up yesterday with my right arm feeling weak and tingly. It has lasted all yesterday and now today.
When I try to pick up things like even a cup of coffee, my hand gets shaky and has a hard time lifting it and holding on to it. I sometimes feel a pinch in my upper arm but nothing that continues and its a kind of dull pain.
I do use the computer a lot but I have not increased usage or done anything different than I normally do. I don't think it's carpel tunnel, but I can't scratch that possibility.
The other day my daughter had a tantrum at the grocery store and I ended up carrying her out. I think that perhaps I hurt my shoulder in the process.
Did I pinch a nerve or something? Whatever the case I need my arm back as I can't write properly with it like this! Is there something I can do? I can't go to the doctor as I don't have insurance and I can't afford another unexpected emergency room bill which I still have to pay..
