Nerve pain

3 replies

I've got what I think is nerve pain down both arms and legs. Woke up with it on Friday morning, and its still there today. Worse if I lay on my side. Only relief is laying in a deep hot bath, which isn't particularly practical when caring for two (poorly) children.

I'm assuming I slept funny, and aggravated something. I co-sleep with DD2, and the worst it feels is in my default co-sleeping position.

But I'm worried its going on for so long with no improvement. It's really affecting my ability to sleep and function. My arms particularly feel quite weak with it and its a horrible sensation.

Should I be getting checked out?

Really? Feel a bit of a plum. And it'll be a neat trick today, can't take these kidlets out anywhere in their current state.

Will see if I can get a telephone appt with the GP though.

No ,of course you wouldn't .
