the pain starts from the mid upper back and slowly travels down to my upper arm and to my fingers, leaving my thumb and index finger numb. I get relief when I either raise my affected arm or when i hot compress it. The pain keeps me from getting good enough sleep since it starts up suddenly with a sharp tingling sensation that eventually cresendos to throbbing pain. I was ask by my doctor to undergo a doppler test but I'm hesitant since the medication I've been prescribed with seems to have no effect at all. I'm taking Mobic 7.5mg, Polynerve 300mg, Myonal 50mg, Lyrica 75mg, Trental 400mg, alcalion 200 mg and gemfibrozil (lopi) 300 mg 2X a day. The pain is so much that I need to stop whatever it is I'm doing and it lasts for as long as 5 minutes and occurs every 10 or so minutes approximately. Can someone help me?
