I can't say. I have mine on and off with my back and chest now for about 4 years. (my youngest sone has a heart problem and I thought since I SPENT BASICALLY THE FIRST FOUR MONTHS OF HIS LIFE LIVING ON ONE OF THOSE HOSPITAL CHAIRS SLEEPING IN THEM THAT IS WHY MY BACK HURT
AS FAR AS THE OTHER NERVE DAMAGE I HAVE> I HAVE A DISEASE CALLED NEUROFIBROMATOSIS AND THE TUMORS ARE WRAPPED AROUND MY NERVES> SO I AM IN CONSTANT PAIN>
I AGREE ALSO WITH YOUR DAD TO HAVE YOUR SUGAR TESTED> IT MIGHT NOT BE WHAT IS GOING ON I JUST THOUGHT WELL YOU KNOW THE CATEGORY AND YOUR CONCERNS WELL AGAIN SORRY

LOL about the username, that is a name I have used online for years, on second though though I probably could of used something different for here.
I have actually had a few people over the past few weeks think the same (nerve damage) and I am hoping it is that instead of something that could be very dangerous (any heart related issues). My dad is wanting me to get checked for diabetes next week (it runs insanely high in my family) so it would be good to know whether or not I have that as well.
Do you any estimates to about how long nerve damage will effect someone? this is my 8th consecutive day with this and it has most certainly worn out it's welcome.
Thank you for your reply,

first of all your name makes me feel sad. I hope you really don't feel that way.
Amayhest pain was rel your pneumonia, but then I saw it has continued
I am wondering if you have some kind of nerve damage or something effecting your nerve. I had a lot of right sided chest pain and man sometimes my back hurts so bad, i feel I sleep wrong on it. I also have numbness in my armS at times (like my arms falling alseep
I also have severe nerve damage to my right foot.)
On the latest MRI of my spine it shows that I have a protrusion on t-4/t-5 and the doctor said that this is the cause of my chest pain and numbness that I am feeling. your blood pressure could be someting different. or it could be due to stress of pain. my doctors for years said that my chest pain was due to the fact of the stress I was under (still am ) due to the fact of my youngest son's medical condition.
It is just a thought about haing something pinched or damage to your nerve, even in your back
Good luck in finding out the issues
