Well, that was nice
January 12, 2009 on 9:23 am | In Henry | 1 CommentHenry was a bit better going down on Friday and Saturday. And yesterday he was an absoluate dream. He went down for both naps and to bed with no problem at all. I was actually surprised how well he did. For some strange reason he has been wanting his pacifier (and he isn’t really a pacifier baby). But hey, if it helps he sleep better, why not?
Maybe this will work again, I’ll mention something and then in a day or two it will go away… I woke up on Thursday with the pinky on my left hand numb and it has been numb ever since. It ebbs and flows so sometimes the ring finger and middle finger are numb too. And sometimes I get pins and needles like it is about to wake up (but it never does). I just called the doctor and I have an appointment for tomorrow. I could have gone in this afternoon, but I have some meetings. I’ve never gotten an appointment that quickly. I’m wondering if it is the economy and they are slow or if “my pinky finger is numb” gets you into the door pretty quickly.
I have my compact flash card and card reader with me today, so I’ll hopefully edit this post to include one later today (and if you see any typos, it is because I’m not used to typing with only 4 fingers on the left hand).

Pinky finger going numb should definitely get you seen quickly. I don’t want to scare you. It really could be nothing. But tingling and numbness in the extremities can also be a symptom of a bulging or blown disc in your spine. (My father had one. No pain, just numbness.) And if that is the problem, it needs to be treated ASAP. But it could also be nothing, or merely a pinched nerve. Maybe you slept funny and kinked it, and the nerve just needs to heal. (I’ve done that myself.) Let us know what they say.
