Hi. I have an appointment tomorrow to address ongoing symptoms and I was just wondering what you guys think I should ask. I don't actually know if what I have is cubital or ulnar or something else but Google searches keep pointing me towards nerve compression.

Symptoms:

This is all happening on my left arm:

On and off elbow pain for months. Icing it usually got rid of it

However, elbow pain got significantly worse about three weeks ago to the point it wouldn't let me sleep hence why I finally made an appointment.

Tingling on fingers and side of the hand.

Twitching on pinky finger and sometimes my thumb.

A tremor on my thumb.

Wrist pain sometimes but not as bad as the elbow.

Shoulder pain sometimes, but again not as bad as the elbow.

I wonder if the wrist and shoulder pains are cause I'm compensating for the now near constant elbow pain.

I don't seem to have trouble gripping stuff or reaching out for stuff. However the pain seems to get worse when I'm typing (I have an office job) or just sitting at a desk doing other tasks. Once I stand up the pain seems to subside a bit.

Anyway any thoughts or insight would be greatly appreciated. I really want my doctor to listen to me...

I'm no stranger to the BFS game. I started having twitched in 2015 after a very rough period of depression in my life. Do that's ten years. It's been going in and off, and most days in fine... I twitch I move on with my life

Well the last month, I've been having some weird symptoms on my left arm. Mostly elbow and wrist pain, which then morphs into difficulty grabbing objects cause it hurts. My thumb and index also get all tingly sometimes. I have an appointment to address this symptoms next week but in the meantime I've been spiraling hard.

And today.. I got a twitch on one of my fingers while I was playing a videogame. Oh boy truly down a rabbit hole now...

Part of me is like you've been twitching for eleven years if you had a big bad then you'd known by now. But the symptoms in the arm is new and they had really thrown a dent into a lot of my own self soothing techniques my
