Thank you all for the replies.
I would suggest you see a chiropractor for those pinched nerves, all your symptoms could very well be due to spinal and neck mis-alingments, I have herniated discs and some of your symptoms, the chiropractor usually is able to help me to cope with them, they also help with anxiety.
The drug Vvansde (lisedexamfatamine dimesylate) has been associated with cardiac irregularities and cardiomyopathy. The first thing I would do is consult with your physician regarding continued use of this drug and go to the FDA site to register an adverse symptoms report.
Thank you for your time replying & info. I really appreciate your insight. I am currently seeking a different job closer to home & hope it's not as sedentary. Apply for anything that gets posted. Without naming the major telecom comp that I work for, you would be shocked at workstation. Instead of putting their name on every arena & stadium... I wish they would provide more ergonomic office equip. I can go through Fmla & have prescribed. If I don't find something new I will have to. Just Sad that it's that difficult. I'm not sure protruding was the word the pt used when trying to explain my MRI. It seems there was bulging but minimal & another diagnosis of the curvature but I can remember the name. I need to get a copy if the report so I can advise correctly. It was something along the place of my neck that should be concave, it is convex or vice versa and slightly. Thanks again
It is normal for your bp to rise after you have been rushing about. Some people's bp will go up even at the thought of seeing their doctor (White Coat Syndrome). So unless your pb is constantly high I shouldn't worry too much. Your doctor would check your bp over a period of a few weeks or get you to wear a bp monitor belt or one that you wear on your wrist to determine if you do have hypertension and whether you required any medication for it.
You have a very demanding life style, have sedentary job, travel an hour there and back to work, overtime, muscular skeletal problems and a young family to look after.
Working at a computer for long periods of time without having frequent rest breaks, and having a bad posture sitting at your work station is not good.
With the shooting pains, these could be from pinched nerves because of spinal problems (disc protrusions). Your neck problems and the sensations of weakness and pins and needles can also indicate that you may have carpal tunnel problems or problems with your tendons as well as problems coming from the cervical area (neck).
The chest problems that you are experiencing may also be from thoracic degeneration. Tingling in the little pinky usually indicates a problem in the neck area and as you already know that you have protruding discs, this is highly likely due to that.
You need to look at your lifestyle very seriously and even consider changing your job. If you do ignore these symptoms that you have in your upper spine and hands, you may end up being completely incapacitated.
Your work place also needs to look at your work station and how you sit and use the keyboard.
Make an appointment to see your doctor with a list of these symptoms, so that you can be referred for nerve conduction tests. These will show whether you do have carpal tunnel problems or whether the hand and wrist problems are stemming from your neck degeneration. And get any other tests carried out that the doctor feels you require.
Wearing wrist splints to support the wrists may help.
