Doctors...aaaarrrggghhhh

Seen the doc this morning as I have been experiencing strange feelings in my arms.I feel as if I have a blood pressure cuff on both upper arms and it leads to this strange thrumming feeling right down into my fingers.
As well as my arms, my eyes feel as if they are following 2 steps behind when I move my head,at first I thought it was vertigo coming back but this has not developed,I've had a nose bleed yesterday but no cold symptoms.

Well the doc says sometimes you just don't know what these things are but because I did not collapse or faint it isn't ringing any alarm bells for her.
I know you don.t come out the surgery clutching a cure all prescription every time but I expected more from her than this.

Hi Linda

I agree with Val that you could go to the chemist, but I think you should also go back to the doctors and tell them how worried you are - is there another doc at the practise you could see?

We actually have a blood pressure monitor at home and check ourselves regularly.I have low blood pressure anyway and there does not seem to be any difference there.
Nina,I have an appointment next week for fasting blood tests,weight and BMI check with the nurse so if it does not get any worse I shall just grin and bear it.It is uncomfortable more than a pain.
Thanks

Hi Linda

If you don't go to the chemist at least ring and see if they have any ideas, mine is quite good sometimes even better than Dr. Then go back to Dr.

Take care

Love
