Last night I took some sleeping tablets (new prescription) and fell asleep faster than I expected. There's a tower fan next to my bed , and that tower fan was set to the lowest temperature and the highest power. I normally switch it to low or off before I fall asleep. But I fell asleep really fast while reading and my bare arm was positioned directly in the blast for six hours or so. And then when I woke, my arm was icy cold to the touch, with limited sensation- like the deadest dead arm and it took about four hours to match the surface temperature of the rest of the body. I took a surface reading with the thermometer after I'd been trying to warm up for an hour. Normal arm was 35, cold arm was 26! It fucking kills. No word of a lie, it feels like it's broken from my shoulder to elbow, it hurts so much. And my skin is painful to touch- like it's been burnt. Too sensitive. I still feel cold to the bone on that arm and it's feeling bruised all over. It's horrible!!
Has this ever happened to anyone else?? What is actually causing the pain?
