My POTs specialist is sending me to a neuromuscular doctor for possible small fiber neuropathy. I see him tomorrow; but lately I have had muscle achyiness in my left shoulder all the way down into my left wrist and sometimes left fingers. - they seem very weak byt more so just achy like i just got an IM injection (like a flu shot or something) but it feels much more weak than my right, though i do get achyness very rarely but on the right side too. its moreso id say a muscle fatigue . I have only noticed tremors in my left arm very occasional. I can still lift my 10 lb kettle bell, I have no problems buttoning anything or fine motor movements I can walk fine with no problems- and I know pots can cause achyness but recently it seems to get weaker and weaker, i never had this prior to a premature birth of my baby in october , and since then have had problems with POTS and even typing makes my left arm feel weak... should i be really concerned? I am a 26 year old female. diagnosed with POTS- had a clear MRI of the brain. I also get pin prick feelings ALL OVER my body , have been very depressed and anxious due to the loss of my baby and decline in my health. please help with your words .
