ROBAXIN

I have had a burning and tingling sensation down my arm, my index finger and thumb also have the same sensation.
I have had this for 7 months now, i suspect i have pulled something, or a nerve is damaged somewhere. Its not alot of pain but it is very bothersome. I have full movement of the arm, and i know it is nerve not muscle. I went to a chiropractor several times, and a massage therapist, none have helped only a temporary relief. I went to the doctor a couple weeks ago and he x-rayed my shoulder and said the rotor cuff looked ok, but  he suspected  an inflamed nerve. He put me on robaxin, 2 a day for six weeks, and said to come back in 6 weeks if it isnt better, well at first i thought it was helping, but it really isnt that much. Its only been 10 days, am i expecting  too  much ?  Am i on the right path with this treatment ? Any suggestions ?  ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY !!

Best.

I really don't know about that but I do agree with Fen that you need to see somebody who will fix it not cover it up with pain pills.
