So I have been having some unusual iessues with my left side. It started down in my legs its kinda a strange heavy feeling still not sure how to describe it. It almost feels like I had the flu shot in my leg. Well the pain kinda traveled up to my arm so I tried to make a dr. appt. and they couldn't seem me. I then went to urgent care who sent me to the er on Mon night. Well I have never met such an jerk dr as i did in the ER he said it was all in my head and pain can't go from the leg to the arm on just one side of the body. They checked for a blood clot which thankfull y it is not and sent me home. This was fine b/c I never even wanted to go to the ER just to get a dr. oppinion. Well the strange heaviness and tingling has gotten worse. I am supposed to finally go to Hawaii on Wednesday to plan the wedding and I am just so frustrated and angry. I am working on getting an appt with my stupid dr. now!!!!!!Sorry for the vent but I am just pissed and frustrated as all heck
Has anyone heard of such a thing?

get an MRI....
about 2 years ago I started to have really bad back pain... I had a few herniated discs so I attributed the pain to that. My legs started to feel numb and tingly along with the pain in my lower back.
I had tumors on my spine... I dont want to scare you into thinking thats what it could be... but it doesnt hurt to get an MRI done.
thankfully, they *caught* mine early enough and removed them so today I am pain free.
i do have a wicked scar...
seriously, if you feel like somehing is AWRY, go to your doctor and ask for an MRI.
Im thinking of surgery..but after the wedding
for what?
THe discs are sittin on top of each other and rubbing against some nerves on my spine...4,5,6,
the doctors are telling me not to do it but im in bad pain constantly,,,,,everyone with the problem said they got surgery and they are better than ever
i know, im sorry i didnt see your earlier post. it looks like a painful recovery but as someone who had FELT that kind of pain (i couldnt even WALK at oe point), I understand!!

get a second opinion, call a different dr. if you need to but I wouldn't let this go, I would definitely get it checked out

Re: medical issue...long vent
Tingling usually means some sort of nerve involvement...maybe a pinched nerve?

I can't believe you can't get a dr.'s apt. Usually when you tell them its serious, they get you in right away. I would demand to be seen tomorrow
I was going to say the exact same thing! I hope you get better soon!
