To add to the list of weird shit that happens to Jess. I somehow slept wrong and cut off circulation to my arm. Like big time. It was purple. This is how it still looks!😳

Has something like this happened to anyone else??

@BillyBones I did that a lot when it first woke me up, along with shaking it as I raised my arm in the air . It helped a little, but took forever to get the blood flowing again. It’s still numbish. So damn odd

@JeSsA Oh wow. I know I was stating the obvious, so sorry about that. Does it still tingle when you wiggle your fingers too?

@JeSsA Yeah. It was a slightly pinched brachial artery in my case. Easily done.
Lie face down and let the affected arm dangle off the side of the bed/sofa. See if that helps.

@stueytheround this happened night before last. It’s crazy. Much better than it was

@JeSsA Get it looked at when you can. Probably nothing, but worth checking out if symptoms continue. Are you a side or facedown sleeper by any chance? That's what got mine. Hurts!

@stueytheround back and side. Primarily side, but I end up on my back often.

@JeSsA
*bites tongue*
*Ok. Breathe*
🤣🤣

It happens to side sleepers more, I think. Definitely worth checking out, though I've noticed it's been happening less as I've lost weight. Might be a factor? I'm no expert.

Bahahaha this is why we are friends. I typed that and knew it sounded wrong as still hit post 💜😂@stueytheround

@JeSsA

This worries me. You use your hands/arms all the time to groom.

@LnzyHou I know.: my dominant arm and the one of CRPS affects. It’s not ideal. There’s some weakness, but it could be, and was, worse.
