Is this normal?

“I woke up this morning and found that my left index finger is partially numb. It feels like it asleep, but has been like this for a few hours now. Just thought I'd share.”

“DM -- thank goodness it's not your trigger finger. You ARE right-handed, aren't you?

Were you laying funny on your hand when you awoke? (not meant as a joke!) Sometimes I can twist my shoulder that way and it takes a while for it to sort out the odd feeling.”

“I slept really hard last night, so I don't know if I slept funny on it not. Yea I'm right handed, but that finger is vital to playing CS.”

“Does it smell? Did you have any sexual dreams that night? Maybe your sphincter is tighter than you think.”

“Yeah...go wash your hands!”

“its age, as you get older alot of thing go numb.”

“how's your skull? is it numb? you could be turning into bacpac.”

“Anything strange about your wrist or elbow? Were you running a snow blower or other machine which vibrates alot?”

“vibrates?”

“titter, titter. Did I type vibrates! Oh my, blush.

Yeah, vibrates. I was attempting an intelligent response to the guys inquiry.”

“That's a normal sensation for me. Ever since I stuck a knife through the palm of my hand and severed some nerves I haven't had feeling in my left index finger.”

“I thought Lumpy would have had better advice about smelly vibrating machines and numb fingers. Butt I guess not. WOW!! to much caffeine this morning, time to go take another lumpy.”

“They say the hand you use the most is the one that becomes arthritic first!

You been reading the Singles threads?”

“It's better now. Don't know what did it.”

“Don't worry about it unless it happens frequently. You probably slept on your hand in some weird way.”

“Yeah, if it happens everyday, get it checked out. Go to PUSH or something.”

“You will get that sensation from playing the vidoe games to offten for too long of a period. I get the same thing in my right wrist after playing GTA for several hours. Also when I play R6RSUOps for several hours my fingers hurt, I believe boths game share the same key set up.

“*********SORRY*******************

I did not run that one past spell check.

You will get that sensation from playing video games to often for too long of a period of time. I get the same thing in my right wrist after playing GTA for several hours. In addition, when I play R6RSUOps for several hours my fingers hurt too, I believe both games share the same key set up.”

“I think one of the signs that you spend too much time here is that you post asking for medical advice.

BTW, I've got this nagging pain in the neck, oh never mind. Its just Bacpac.”

“I think it might have been from the three straight hours of Counter Strike that I played last night. That finger has the most reach on the key board and is used the most.”

“If it happens again, I'm afriad it may have to come off.”

“Yes, by all means be proactive and cut it off before you have to remove to the whole hand.

By the way, you got lucky this time mister, don't you know that you could go blind.”

“barlo, The Doctor is IN”

“Deathmarch, If you are developing numbness and tingling in your extremities have your doctor perform a nerve conduction study. I contracted Guillian Barre' Syndrome several years ago and it started in my hands. I was paralized for three months. Most GBS patients notice problems in their feet and legs first. Mine developed pretty slowly, but it can spead in a matter of hours.

GBS is vary rare and most (Like Me) make a full recovery. About 10% die.”

“I just heard a story on the radio about how the Russians had used a man's middle finger as a substitute for his amputated favorite prominent member.
I would think that could make it numb.”

“Dunk,

Why would you put a knife through the palm of your hand? Just wondering.”

“Sunshine, Are you nuts? Don't ask him a question like that. He stabbed his previous girl friend too.”

“bacpac, Does that mean he's single? LOL!!!

ok, bad joke but I couldn't resist. :oP”

“he did?”

“MooooHaaa Haaa, good joke Sunshine!

Sorry Dunk, it was only a joke”

“mel,

so this russkie can pop a boner and flip a bird at the same time?!?!?!?

sign me up!!!!!”

“LOL”

“A man with more than one talent.
Oh, Happy Man!
Does that mean he can do more things with one little finger than most people can do with their whole body?!”

“Don't get greedy Mel, A man with one talent is a rare find these days.”

“DM
If it happends again, take a hammer and beat the crap out of it. It may not fix the problem but hey, How often can you smash your finger with a hammer and not feel it?”

“You may need to loosen your grip or try playing with the other hand so your other will have time to heal.”

“I love it, thanks for the smile walkin.”

“:@)”

“WD
that looks like a pig that was just given the dirty sanchez.



LOL”

“I've been told that if you're very careful, you can switch hands and actually gain a stroke.”

“when i use my left hand, it's like having an affair... with a very unskilled partner.”

“A better thread would be who, here is normal?”

“I think we may have degraded this thread to an all time low. Woohoo, and I started it all. I'm so proud. BTW, it was the left finger, and I'm right handed.”

“A thread by that name wouldn't even get any hits.”

“yes, Smel, you are!”
