    now, this is my last post asking for help. I promise. someone talk some sense into me

    When you're going to have a heart attack, your left arm remains numb right? ( i know im not, but i just want to educate myself so my anxiety doesn't freak me out )

    Maybe, but it will go numb for many reasons and anxiety is one. Pulled muscles , cracked ribs , broken ribs , being winded and terd .

    You know when you are having a heart attack ?? When you cant move the elephant that is sitting on your chest . Yes its that bad . So a little twitch of a bit of strain from a tense muscle is nothing to worry about .

    cheers

    Dear Son,

    The only way that you are ever going to have a heart attack is if any of the following happen:

    1. You are suddenly introduced to This Crazy Viking man that sometimes takes control over me...unlikely.
    2. You continue to eat red meat every day of your life as you stated you do...stop.
    3. You are suddenly dropped into the center of Africa without food, water, nor a pocket knife...unlikely.
    4. You are strapped into the cockpit of the Endeavor along side a chimpanzee, countdown to launch...unlikely.
    5. You are duct taped to a Ballistic Nuclear Missle and fired into the Arabian Sea...unlikely.

    So, that being said...enough of the heart attack crap already! Because that is not what it is SON!!!...

    Now, go have fun and enjoy being 15!!!!

    Dad.

    dead. haha i think it might be carpel tunnel syndrome.


    but its kinda how your foot feels after sitting cross legged on it for a while.. that heavy feeling.

    its in my hand. not really my whole arm.

    always left too. sometimes its on my right hand, but mostly left

    Anxiety .

    I get the same thing . Hard feeling to describe. Also get the same thing on my face .

    Its not carpel tunnel i can tell you that . Had it in both hands and its a real numb feeling but only in two fingers, mostly when sleeping . Your too young for it also.

    Its more than likely related to when you are in flight and fright the blood is moved more to the center of your body .

    Its built like this so when that lion bites your finger off you don't bleed to death .

    cheers
