Hey Randi,

Do you experience any loss of strength with this? A few years ago my mom had a problem with tingling that sounded like yours but she also had a loss of strength. She went to several doctors and couldn't find relief. Finally she went to a chiropractor who sent her for an MRI of her cervical spine (neck) and they found that one of her vertebrae in her neck had become jagged and was snagging nerves (she had a stiff neck one day years ago and let someone at work crack it for her - she immediately knew by the pain that she had made a big mistake; that's what injured her neck). She started treatment with him for it and finally got some relief but it's still something she deals with. Just wanted to put this out there in case you start investigating it and don't get any answers. Good luck, I hope you feel better soon - I can only imagine how frustrating that must be.

OH.. and it's snowing outside - I've been thinking of you! Hope you're enjoying it!

Take care, Tracy
