Re: sensations
I've always noticed that the BPI arm burns more easily, but I've just poked both arms and I have pretty equal feeling in both. What the erb's arm does have is a lot of sensitivity in the upper arm. I've always thought it was because of a lack of muscle tone. Although....... maybe you guys are a lot more Erbee than I am. Pat

I have always had hyper sensitive upper arm. No one could even tap me I would get shock like feelings on both upper arm and back near the scapular. I have scapular winging...
I never checked the lower arm until recently and it seems like some spots have no real feeling... hot does not feel hot yet I can get burned... because I can't feel it on the forearm...
the outside of my hand is beginning to loose feeling now too... just curious if others have the same sensations.
