Guest guest Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 >>> My Left arm is really weak right now because of the back. GRRRRRRRRR, and doctors dont help. " take this drug it will make your back feel better and turn you into a zombie! " I went to get treated not druged.>> Greetings Liz, I guess your appt didn't go too well? You said that your arm is hurting? That is normally associated with nerves in the neck, rather than in the lower back. The site that I LOVE is no longer functioning.....but you were able to click on a part of the body that hurt and it would tell you what nerve was associated. But, there are other good sites out there for info, here are some that I have saved: http://www.scottfamilychiro.com/info/nerve.htm#Lombar http://www.edc.org/PainLink/plguidelines.html Lots of links on this site http://distance.stcc.edu/AandP/AP/AP1pages/nervssys/unit12/spinal1.htm This one is a very good *map* of the nervous system. Please don't be too discouraged by the Dr.s and their offers of pain meds. Sometimes, it is something simple that is causing the nerve impingement, and if you relax and let your body do it's thing, sometime it is able to heal itself, rather than have a very invasive procedure done, such as surgery. Heat and cold, alternating, can sometimes clear out any swelling that is going on.....if that is what is causing your pain. Please let us know how things are going, sending healing energy your way!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Thanks again Chris, and just to let you know i work for a MD so i see one every day. LOL. He told me to think about PT so i am considering that. I am doing alot better know so i hope it was just a pulled muscle or somthing, but i am deffinatley not going to let it get that bad again. I am being very careful with what i do and how i do it because i dont want to go through that agan. Blessed be Liz Chris Kelly <Purrrdy wrote: >>>THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH, with that i am going to search my collection to see if i have one if not i am on my way right now to my shop. I think its a pinched nerve and i am in extreme pain right now so i am off to my heating pad and going to veg in front of the TV. Blessed be Liz>> You are quite welcome Liz....I do hope that it helps you some. Something else you might want to consider, that isn't stone related, is to alternate the heat and cold on your back. If there is swelling in your back, that may be what is causing the nerve to be impinged. The hot/cold will get the blood flowing in that area and help move out some of the swelling. If this continues to get worse, please don't take too long to see a MD about it. You can cause permanent nerve damage if a nerve is impinged too long......don't ask me how I know Spines are a very odd creature! If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Please let us know how this went with the Selenite! Chris Kelly Website updated weekly! Come see what is new. http://www.scentsappeal.net ---------- --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
