I don't have that electro you talk about. Pain comes in phases, like 2-3 week stints that nothing seems to relieve. I think it's getting worse. The last episode I had was in my lower back but before that I had a problem with the cervical disks with the pain in my right arm. Bicep one day then forearm the next. Scared the hell out of me. I thought it was MS or something. But then it went away and I read that's a symptom of a cervical disk problem. That's the first time that one happened though. The toes on my right foot always feel asleep but thats from the lumbar problem. But no. I don't get that "flighty" feeling. Maybe that's more from your heart issues? I avoid taking any chemicals and will not ever take methadone as I read some dude did. But especially with your heart issues, I wouldn't hesitate taking those drugs, especially with your ace husband heart doc right there. I really do hope you feel better.
