Guest guest Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 Has anyone gotten numbness in fingers as a side effect from medication you are taking or simply from arthritis? Both of my wrists are painful. Will the numbness go away? I have it in two fingers. I'm scared a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 well if you are on methotrexate that could be the reason . sometimes the methotrxate affects your nerves in hand . i had that too . although if it continues though you should have your heart checked . sometimes that is a symptom of heart problems . if you have a problem with cervical [neck] vertebrae that could also be it . have it checked cathy from mass, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 Dear , I've had numbness in my fingers on and off for years. I've been tested for carpel tunnel syndrome and told sometimes I have it and then it comes and goes. It's never been bad enough to have surgery, but it is really annoying. Do you find if you hold your hands down the numbness goes away? Like you are letting the blood back into your fingers? If so it is probably related to your wrists swelling and it puts pressure on the nerves that go to your fingers. (At least it was explained to me this way.) On the other hand, no pun intended..lol, I've had numbness on and off with arthritis for years. it was worried me several times since I have MS in my family but I actually think all the inflammation causes swelling around nerves and then we get numbness at times. I've had it in my hands, feet, elbows, arms and even my shoulder from time to time. Like anything new though, it makes sense to have it checked out to be sure nothing else is wrong. I hope it goes away as fast it came on and it's just one of those little things about PA that makes it so " interesting " . Take care, Fran [ ] Re: Numbness in fingers Has anyone gotten numbness in fingers as a side effect from medication you are taking or simply from arthritis? Both of my wrists are painful.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 I find my fingers get numb when using the zapper does any one else have this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Not me, but I've only been using the zapper and the super zappicator for a little over a week. I'm sort of looking for herxes, but haven't had any. I did notice that I'm using it on my face for teeth and sinuses and I get itching the next day which I'm assuming is a good thing as healing usually is accompanied by itching.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Be sure you are changing polarity every five minutes. Jack > > I find my fingers get numb when using the zapper does any one else have > this problem? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Please explain changing polarity. Does that mean you change the copper holders into different hands after each cycle? I didn't see that on the directions for use. I'm also using the super zappicator. Now this one is a bit tough as the shape is difficult to keep in place without putting one's hand on the back which is a nono. I've been using them for a couple of weeks. Does anyone have any idea how long before I can expect to see any changes in my overall health. I have zero energy, extreme fatigue, heart palps, headaches and earaches. And lots of jawbone infection from root canals. Two have been removed and the bone had to be scraped. I have two to go. Can the zapper and super zappicator help this. I put it on my face daily for an hour. From: Jack <jack.mill@...> Subject: Re: Numbness in fingers Dr Date: Monday, October 13, 2008, 6:19 PM Be sure you are changing polarity every five minutes.
