Feeling Strange Sensation In Arm. Got Relief After Taking Ativan. What Is Causing This?
Question: Last night I had a strange feeling in my arm like getting hit in the funny bone that reverberated to my stomach, which felt like a panic attack. I was trying to sleep when it happened. It happened repeatedly, and I was up until 3 a.m. when I took some Ativan and it stopped. YYYY@YYYY
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The feeling that you had could be due to vitamin B complex deficiency, electrolyte imbalance or anxiety. If it is a one time symptom then there is nothing to worry and you can wait for it to subside spontaneously. In case the feeling is recurrent then taking Vitamin B complex supplements and a mild anti anxiety drug with low day time sedation after consulting your physician will help.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
