Dan- ISI3 study = only 3% of MIs have tingling, 85% have Pain. Tingling is NOT a common sign of MI. Stroke are usually PAIN free. They typically have motor loss, not pain. I would never give you bad information. The folks on this forum have been very kind and helpful to me since my father’s fall and quadriplegia. I was just trying to repay the favor. Hope that clarifies a common myth.

For a doctor he doesn't seem to know a whole lot. Through his fingers, Dan At 04:51 PM 9/27/2010, Dr. Bo Machado said something that elicited my response: Tingling is NOT usually a s/s of a stroke or heart attack. Do not be worried about that. Focus on Peripheral Nerve issues, like compression of the Ulnar Nerve as it becomes more superficial at the elbow. Hope that relieves some worry, Dr Bo ____________________________________ From: [email protected] [_ mailto:[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ] Sent: Monday, September 27, 2010 1:47 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Hand numbness In a message dated 9/27/2010 10:42:58 AM Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: I am C-6 Inc and six days ago my pinky finger as well as the side of my hand all the way to the wrist has gone numb. There is no swelling or bruising, and i still can do everything i need throughout the day. Todd, I get this and sometimes my finger tips feel like a thousand needle pricks. Symptoms of heart attack or stroke. I think it's just from being a quad. The next day something else is bugging me. Dianna
