Well you did not describe what you do during these fights, since they are not physical, do you do a lot of screaming and heavy breathing? If so it may be that you have thoracic outlet syndrome. This is a general condition that affects the brachial plexus or the group of nerves that enters the arm. These nerves go between muscles in the neck, and go behind the collarbone in order to from the spine to the arm. In this condition your movements, or heavy breathing, and increased intra-thoracic pressure from screaming and breathing is pinching the nerves as they go from the neck to the arm. This is not an uncommon condition. If it progresses to where you feel numbness when you are not fighting but relaxing, you may want to have your neck checked for a disc problem. And if you keep fighting, you may want to seek profession counseling.

Sounds Like a Trapped Nerve from Possible Irrational waving of Your Arm During the Fight with your man!

Oooh, I see. . . well look at my other post anyway, your tense-ness during the fights may have something to do with it. Since you are young, I would definitely discuss this with a doctor (or do one of those phone-a-nurse things). Maybe there's a lot more going on than we know. . . and you have many years ahead of you. Fix the problem now before it gets progressively worse.

Sounds like it is stress related and not something else. So long as it goes away once you calm down I wouldn't worry about it but just be sure to mention it to your doctor when you go in for your physical this year.

Whew, I am glad to hear that! This is probably related to the stress you are experiencing, but to be on the safe side, you need to consult with your physician and inform of what is happening so he can check you out. This is not normal.

sounds like a heart condition that is aggrivated by stress. Go the the doctor before you have a heart attack. Document this and use it in the divorce against him. Give a copy of the medical results to your family so if you do die of a heart attack they can use it to prosecute your husband.
