Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have intermitant sensation through both my arms that travels from the top of my shoulders to the tips of my fingers. I have had a heart attack in the past and stinting surgery but, my surgeon says there isn't any blockage. It has been more than a year since the surgery and I am still experiencing this sensation. I am 56 years old and weigh 200 lbs also, Female. Ex-smoker for over 2 yrs.
Are these sensation present through or any precipitating factor are there like exertion, neck movement. Is there a history of trauma to neck? Most likely this looks like cervical, occurs due to compression of nerves between the vertebrae. You need to get x-ray cervical spine ap/lat view and later you may need MRI.
At present you have tab neurobion forte once a day which is a nerve vitamin. If doesn't respond you can get tab Pregabalin as prescribed from local doctor. Treatment is medical, physiotherapy and surgery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Sagar Makode
