does anyone know where i could find a good medical site where i could post a question and get an answer from a doctor? I have had pins and needles in my arm all day and it keeps twitching. Ive been getting it in my legs loads and ill be sitting down and ill stand up and my legs are totally dead. The pins and needles in my arm have got less and are really just in my little finger now. anyone know what this could be??!! thanks!!
Frankly I wouldn't trust this one to an Internet site and would go to your own doctor and get it checked out. Better to suspect something and be wrong, than to suspect nothing and be wrong.
Kitty, the advice given seems to be that you should see your doctor. To find out more about pins & needles check out this link which will confirm that advice and give you the reasons for it. http://www.disability.vic.gov.au/dsonline/dsarticl es.nsf/pages/Pins_and_Needles?OpenDocument It's an Australian site but I suppose that their pins & needles are the same as ours.
there is an internet site which is really very good. you have to log in like you do here, but it is free and confidential. just go to a search engine (I use Google) and type in Well-aware that should get it for you
