Possible MS?

[Kati218]

I have been dealing with some arm weakness and numbness in my thumb, index and middle finger on my right side.  My index finger being the worst.
I've been seen by a chiropractor and acupuncturist and both believe I have a pinched nerve.
I'm scared and very fearful that it could be MS.
Any advice would be very helpful as my mind will just not shut off.

No reason to be concerned.  It sounds like severe carpal tunnel syndrome or some other nerve entrapment syndrome; get that looked after, as JJ suggested.

Depending on your age, arthritis can also play havoc with fingers.

Hi Kati and welcome,

I'm not sure why you would be concerned it could be a neurological condition like MS and not from a pinched nerve, i would suggest you at least see your GP to confirm what the chiropractor and acupuncturist consider your situation to be caused by.

Hope that helps......JJ
