Rapidly Numbing
I’m a little concerned.
Whenever I go to sleep I always lie down on top of my arms, and it usually takes a few hours before they become numb. Now I can’t even lie down on top of them because they will become numb within a few minutes. Is this because of the gear[1000mg sos, 100mg EOD winny]? Is it just due to working out and having a heavier body? Should I be concerned?
Thanks in advance.

happens to me too. i blame it on thoracic outlet syndrome caused by tight scalene muscles and tight pec minor from hypertrophy of both muscle groups over time. i learned to sleep on my back and to keep both arms elevated on pillows that i lay next to me and now i have no problems

Thanks Doc, I have the same problem and it all began when I started to exercise consistently with heavier weights 2 years ago. I put quite a lot of effort into my own research and even went to the doctor and had a scan but they were useless. Now I finally know what it is, and it sounds pretty convincing that this is the problem.
Thanks again, by the way do you know how many people who lifts weights suffer from this?

quite a few more than i thought. it can also be congenital with some people, if you have a cervical rib that can also cause this problem, but this is very very rare. and if you had an xray or mri it would have been seen by the radiologist.

Thanks in advance for your response...

worked like a charm, a little difficult to get comfortable in at first, but it feels a lot better than your arms being numb.
thanks doc
