Right side problems

I am having problems with my right side. My arm hangs and doesn't swing all the time. My foot drags when I walk. When I try to walk normal I almost limp. I have a hard time writing neatly like I always did. My hand shakes for no apparent reason at times. A lot of times I don't even realize it is shaking. A stroke has been ruled out with an MRI and other medical tests.

There are many other diseases that could cause these symptoms.(Lyme, pinched nerve, slipped disc...etc) You need to have more tests performed by the dr. Get a neurology consult as soon as you can along with a referral to a Physical Therapist to start working on your physical problems with your right side. Good luck to you!

i know i am of no help, but when i was a teenager, i had the SAME issue. I dont know if its the same reason, but with my issue, i ended up having to have a nerve block in my neck.
Everything i ever had done turned out to be negative, it makes you feel like you dont know what you are talking about, and people think you are making it up. I do hope you find an answer!
