I have a new thing going on and i was jsut wodnering if anyoen else had this issue.

Normally one arm at a time goes numb weird sensatiosn can't hold anything etc... well just two days ago this started occurign with all that. If I pick anything heavy up or use my hand for a long amount of time my muscles start to tremble its really very weird it does not last too long but occurs ferquently. for example eating a meal by the time i am done my arm is trembnling like crazy or holding my daughter my triceps goes insane.

i guess I just watn to know i am not alone and this is most likely not a sign of some major nerve damage

thanks

I have the same problem, like washing the car holding the wand or hose does it.

I have had it myself. Plenty of times I had a right hand so shaky I had to eat with my left hand. The Avonex I take has helped stop most of the shaking. Hope yours settles down soon!

I have the same thing happen to me all the time, just carrying my lunch from the car into work this morning was difficult, my arm felt like it was going to fall off. Same thing happens when I eat my hand,arm shakes uncontrollably.

My last doctors visit my neuro put a piece of paper on top of my hand with my arm half way extended, WOW the shakes.
