My Mini Adventure

By JJ46

Circulation problems.

Been having even more symptoms related to the nerve damage sustained when I had a spinal tumour removed in 2012. What with the shooting pains in arm/hand/shoulder, dreadful aches, hypersensitive skin, excruciating hand spasms, etc, I'm hoping there won't be anything new again for a while.

This is the latest which started happening a couple of months ago... one white finger. The nerves feeding the blood supply go into spasm and temporarily cut it off. I believe this is known as secondary Raynaud's phenomenon. Worrying. When the blood supply returns, it can hurt quite a bit.

I had a trip to the pain clinic yesterday who are referring me to some other specialists who might be able to help with these problems... or at least stop things getting any worse. Hope so.
