9. No prognosis yet?
I had some skin cancers removed from my right arm last spring and a local anesthetic was used. After the last one my arm went numb from the shoullder down and stayed that way for about two days. Essentially the anesthetic never wore off, but I was pretty scared for awhile. Fortunately I'm sorta ambidextrous so I was able to do most things although it made it difficult to ride a motorcycle or swing a golf club. I was able to use the computer and drive a car using only my left hand.

Then on the morning of the third day my arm started to tingle and by dinner time I had recovered all feeling and use fo the arm.

Worst part of it was my kids laughin and calling me a spaz.

Take care of yourself, and if you want to hear some good music to while away the time download "Dwight Sings Buck" just released today.
