Re: Swelling?

Just checking in. A side from the swelling arm I have had thoracic back pain for 2 months seeing a chiropractor and massage therapist, was told it was a muscle spasm so when my arm started to swell two weeks ago he had me stop that treatment and had me do an mri of my thoracic spine. It wasn't a spasm it is a pinched nerve at t6 t7 t7 t8. He was checking for mets. I'm thanking God it wasn't mets! so I'm going to see a spine specialist and a Lymph edema specialist. There is some humor in what we are thankful for now. Thank you ladies. Gods blessings!
