I know how hard it is to try to relax when you have so much pain and fear of what could happen. I just meant that IF you can relax JUST a small amount SOMETIMES it can help the pain slightly as your muscles are not so tight.

With the feeling that you are having in your arm and hand it might possibly have some pinched nerves there that are causing some of this.

You just need to hang on until you get your Ultrasound!

I wish the VERY BEST for you....Sherry

Thank you so much for updating us. I'm so glad that you've started with the testing to get your answers.

We are definitely going to be anxiously waiting for your further updates from your Ultrasound!!

You really just need to relax as much as you can and let the Dr's find the answers for you. There is a chance that you have some arthritis because of your Blood Tests.

Please try and be patient as your answers will come.

Good luck my Friend.....Sherry

Today I had neurology appointment. I was told that the chest xray was ok and that my blood test which i had in march came back the one of the blood test results was high cause people have this high cause if u have arthritis or if u have pains. Whcih meant the i had to have the blood test again and also 24 hours urine test maybe something might come in that. In two weeks for today i have a ultrasound scan so will let u know. Then two weeks after that i have vascular surgery appointment.
If u have any idea what i have pls could u let me know as i will be so greatful..
