Question questions about nerve pain.

my brother has been suffering off & on w/ his arm. he is unable to lift it very much at all & is in extreme pain w/ it. some people think it may be a symptom of Gerd & i am not so sure. any ideas or suggestions would be very helpful. thank you.

Re: questions about nerve pain.

I too cannot see any sort of a possible connection between the two either??he really does need to see his primary for an initial eval and then be referred to an ortho doc for more in depth evaluation and MRI.or he could actually have the MRI done thru his primary.Did this arm actually recieve any sort of injury at any time?does he have any actual pain or weird sensations anywhere else in his body with special emphasis on the neck or upper back area?this definitely is not GERD related.wow,thats a new one.He does need this evaluated soon,something has to be causing these types of symptoms,this just doen't "happen' without some sort of a reason,or trigger.please help himget to a good doc and please let us know just what he finds out,K?marcia

Re: questions about nerve pain.

Funny to posted this...I ended up in the ER the other day with chest pains, and left arm pain...They said its my GERD acting up and it effects the WHOLE body not just the stomach...The stomach has many nerve endings and when the GERD acts up, it can cause many pains in different parts of the body..I've been dealing with it for year...

But I agree, I find it strange...I've been on and off the Z-pak for a year (Zitromax) and the last time I took it, is when all this pain started...Leg pain, arm pain, face pain, the legs are the worse....


I would see a GI doctor or your GP to find out....


Good luck
Julie
