My arm.

So, apparently some of the issues going on in my left arm maybe because of shingles. I'm not completely sure as I didn't quite understand what the doctor said and I'm not sure if I even had shingles.

I think I did because I distinctly remember having a conversation with a doctor (ages ago) about spots that I got which he said was like chicken pox, but non-infectious. That some people just got chicken pox a second time. Though I thought that he said something like "Sub Rosa" as the name of the disease. Though the second time as chicken pox I absolutely remember. So, that's probably the shingles.

Shingles can cause nerve or neurological issues years down the line, which may be what's happening with my left arm. I'm not sure if that's why my EMG was normal or not. It's not that the nerves were blocked or anything like that but just buggered. The doctor wants me to get an MRI just to make sure it's not a pinched nerve or something.

Currently I have some patches I'm supposed to use for if it is the shingles thing. I'm not sure what they're supposed to do either! I think help with the pain. I'm being far to vague on this, aren't I?

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
