Hi everyone!
I hope you're as well as can be :)
I've been experiencing arm 'discomfort' for the last couple of weeks, and it's started to trigger my HA.
The muscle at the top of my left arm keeps twitching, and my arm feels generally heavy and achy from time to time. The area around the muscle feels hot at times (not to touch - more of an internal feeling).
Of course, I Googled 'why do muscles twitch' (stupidly) and saw articles about it being a sign of MND. I've had so many blood tests over the last few months, so I'm assuming something like that would have been picked up.
The only things I can think of are:
1) I had a tetanus jab in the area about 7 weeks ago. I saw my GP on Monday about it, and she said sometimes the area can take a while to heal, although there was no sign of infection or swelling or anything. She gave me 10 days worth of ibuprofen.
2) I do sleep with this arm under my pillow - maybe I've just been sleeping funny on it?
Has anyone else experienced anything like this, and it turned out to be nothing? Can muscles do this for seemingly no reason?
I feel so silly for even posting, but it's affecting my HA, so I know you'll all understand.
Thank you so much in advance for any responses...
