Sally, I also have some numbness and tingling at night time. I have always chalked it up to the rotator cuff tear that I have on each shoulder. ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Sunday, February 25, 2007 1:31 PM Subject: [TMIC] numb hand
Has anyone woken up at night with a numb hand? Twice in the last week, I've woken up during the night with my left hand numb. The first time I just chalked it off as being b/c I'd fallen asleep laying on my back on an ice pack for a couple of hours. But when it happened again last night, I got a little more concerned. Part of what makes me more concerned is that for the last couple of weeks, my upper spine has been feeling a bit weird. My TM lesion is T6 - T8, but now I'm starting to worry about something higher in my back. Now that I think about it, when I was jumping (lightly) on the little trampoline at PT, I felt this funny feeling in my upper spine (like maybe it was sort of jamming together). Then at water exercise, I've started participating in the jumping jacks that sort of does the same thing to my upper spine. Of course, it's not like jumping on the ground b/c the water cushions the movement, but maybe my body isn't ready for this. Any experiences with these kinds of things? Sally
