weakness in arms..please share if anyone has had

[chevychaser]

Hi everybody...last week it was floaters and now it's this. It's like my mind just can't except that everything could be ok. I have this weird sensation that comes and goes that my arms and hands are weak. I keep gripping things to make sure they are working. It's very scary as i think It could be a stroke or something...please share your stories if you've had this or similar....cheers..im freaking out

Yep I have had that before. You just feel like you can't hold something tight enough.

The Dr checked my grip etc and said it was fine but i really felt weak
Perception can be really warped(well mine is)
Its really anxiety and you are ok,please dont be scared

I have had this also!!!

Do you ever remember laughing so hard at school with your mates then not being able to write for a few minutes cos your hands were too weak to grip a pencil - 'weak with laughter'.

Anxiety is an emotion much as laughter is and if laughing can make you weak then its not surprising that other emotions can too.

"Supposing it didn't," said Pooh after careful thought.
