A Little help please

by Shirl123, Jul 23, 2008 06:43AM
For the past couple of days, my left arm has been hurting, and feeling a little numb, and yesterday and right now my chest feels like there are little needles being poked at it. Can someone tell me if these are systems of a minor stroke or not. There has been alot of stress with the home and I don't know what to do. Can somebody please help me. I just turned 37. Isn't that a little young for a stroke?
Thank you for your time.

So sorry about your ailments.  And, yes, 37 is a little young for a stroke but it can happen.  Anytime there is chest pain it's best to RUN to the ER.  It could also be a heart attack.  Heart attacks usually have symptoms of pain in left arm.  No one on here can diagnose what your problem is.  We can only speculate so it's best to go see a doctor.
