I am so having a struggle not knowing whether its gonna be worth going through with the nerve conduction study due to having numbness in my extremities and I did have a brain MRI which showed a spot on my brain but I guess inconculsive for MS at this point.

I went to a MAPS clinic, just once...and when I told the PA about the above, using the bed as an example, I was told it was probably static electricity in… read more

My shoulder is in a lot of pain and it's burning some horrible but since I haven't had too many problems with this part of the body. I'm not to certain why I'm having so much pain with burning now.

I have had injections in my neck and shoulders before maybe I just didn't recognize the problem due to the horrible pain in my back hips and… read more
