For 3 years now I have experienced
numbness on my right side. Primarily my
right arma nd hand. I feel the numness
during the day but most frequently at
night. It begins with my middle finger
then passes unto the ring finer then the
pinkie. Lately, the numbness has
intensified. There are times when the
numbness has occured in my left arm and
hand. For the last 48 hours I have
continued soreness primarily on the right
side in my middle finger joints . I did
have a breast augmentation done three
years ago but, Dr. Scott harris has
stated that the two are not related.
That I needed to see a neurologist.
Family practioner says I need alternating
heat and cold pads. What is it that I may
be suffering?
I have applied moist heat to my back, I
sleep on a heatting pad with my arm
resting on a pillow. Is there any thing
else I should do?

I don't know. But if I were you i'd get
a second opinion or take the advice of the
other doc that you mentioned and see a
neurologist.
