What Causes Tingling On Top, Left Side Of Head And Upper Left Arm?
Question: In 2004, 2007, and 2010, I terribly sprained my low back from exercsing. Took 3 dys each time before I could walk normally briskly
I had a stroke 2 years ago.
Got herniated, bulging disks in neck, and sometimes @ night I'll feel tingling on top and left side of head, in upper left arm, and, like a gentle electricity, go down my left leg.
Any device, stem cells, surgery, SOMETHING, hat can allevite this, and make me able to LIVE again?
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
TENS, nerve(s) ablation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Firstly, there is a need for a correct diagnosis of your condition, and systems you describe, seems to be related to compression of nerves mostly.
If you were my patient, I would asked for nerve conduction study and MRI of your spine as diagnostic tests.
However, those symptoms may be eased by use of procedures that arrest the responsible nerves functions.
These procedures include TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) and nerves ablation.
Symptoms related to discs bulge also need to be managed with physical therapy and imaging follow up.
You should discuss with your primary care Doctor about these issues, because he can order the appropriate consultations and tests.
Neurologists that are specialized in electrophysiology should be consulted also.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if if something not clear to you.
Greetings.

Could 1 mg Lorazepam daily help with this: at least MASK THIS SHIT until I can find a CURRENT doctor in these ass-backwoods areas of the United States?
This is going to send me to hell as I just spent the last hour cursing God the Holy Ghost for these distresses.
People tell me, "Quit complaining! You got it SO MUCH BETTER than many others!'
But I AM NOT WHOLE! THAT is the object, the f@#$ing god@#$# goal!
NOT J U S T to be able to look down my nose at some other miserable subhuman wretch!
If GOD does not hurry His holy as up I SELL MY SOUL TO SATAN for sweet relief!
I curse God for all the doors closing in my face!
I CURSE GOD that NO ONE HAS donated JACK-penny-shIT to my GoFundMe towards my stem cells!
I CURSE GOD I do not look good enough to make it worth a payoff to members of this sex saturated star-worshipnig society to help a BUTT-UGLY person like mysel!

I am scheduled 2 one mg tablets a day but will try to keep it down to 1 in the middle of the day.
Lorazepam used to make me sleep perfectly: tried it last night got almost no sleep, so can I still take my Trazodone (I got to bed @ 4 at night.)
I can sleep when I feel all snotty-nosed and congested ears as sleeping makes it feel better, and I just need to KILL it when I am awake so I can half-fucking live
Oh, and I forgot to add (to my last query) HOW does Lorrazepam) allevite these... mysterious symtpons? And could STEM CELLS do so?

If you suffer from stiff joints, yes.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again.
Pulsed electromagnetic therapy is mainly beneficial inf used in non healing bone fractures.
Other treatment indications include pseudoarthroses and depression that didn't respond to antidepressant drugs.

COULD pulsed electromagnetic field therapy...
EASE SYMPTOMS of (seeming) chronic sinusitis, possibly brought on by a perfect storm of radiculopathy, (bulging, herniated neck disks and some fucked up muscle to my right just beneath the center of back of neck of mine) and stroke residual effects?

Brief Answer:
It could be of benefit in improving those conditions too.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again and thanks for being on follow up.
I mentioned the main applications of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy in our previous conversation.
Anyway. I doubt that sinusitis is related to radiculopathy.
Let me explain the mechanisms that induces and improves pulsed electromagnetic field, it works by increasing locally blood flow, improves oxygen supply of tissues and enhances the metabolism, promoting in this way healing and symptoms improvement without any significant side effects.
Basically, pulsed electromagnetic field therapy should improve chronic sinusitis and radiculopathy, so, in my opinion, its use can be of benefits in your case.
It is worth to try.
Hope I helped you.
Wishing speed recovery.
