i have never ever had surgery or anything done to my arm. i still get shocking like elctricuting pains in my arm. in fact, i came on today to see if anyone else had them. it seems to me that most of you have had surgery and have them so i dont know if i can relate due to that. but i still get shocks and they only last a couple seconds... it really hurts alot and i just keep getting then every 20 minutes... it usually is like that for a couple days and then dies down and i only get them every so often after that. wow this is cool. lol

Yes, indeed. It seems I usually get them more so after I have overused my arm. I have just recently started back to college and so I'm not using my arm a lot like I was before at work. Although now because I am sitting so long I've been getting the tremendous neck pain as well. If I work to hard it'll usually happen again. It's amazing how many people actually have this type of injury. For years I thought I was the only one. And I am so thankful that I met everyone here to help me cope. If there's anything at all I can do to help you out please let me know.

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI. I am 77 yrs old and never had a name for my injuries until 2004 when I found UBPN at age 66.

My injuries are: LOBPI on upper body and Cerebrael Palsy on the lower left extremities. The only intervention I've had is a tendon transplant from my left leg to my left foot to enable flexing t age 24 in 1962. Before that, my foot would freeze without notice on the side when wearing heels AND I always did wear them at work "to fit in" I also stuttered until around age 18-19...just outgrew it...no therapy for it. Also suffered from very very low self esteem; severe Depression and Anxiety attacks started at menopause. I stuffed emotions and over-compensated in every thing I did to "fit in" and be "invisible". My injuries were Never addressed or talked about until age 66. I am a late bloomer!!!!!

I welcome any and all questions about "My Journey".
There is NO SUCH THING AS A DUMB QUESTION.

It is sooo wonderful to validate my "shooting pains" that come & go at their will.Mostly when I overdo & am very tired;still it does happen anytime when nothing is going on.I get them in the neck,shoulder,arm,hand,finger,leg & foot. I too, get numbness at times;I am LOBPI.

I haven't been on the Boards for a while, so hello again everyone.
