boring medical stuff

I finally went to the surgeon to see about the lump in my armpit- he is quite sure it is just a cyst and nothing to be worried about. He told me that if it got any bigger he would remove it though. That was a relief. Then 2 weeks ago, I woke up and found out that my had did not work (!) so I figured I had pinched a nerve and that the chiro could fix it. Well, he wasn't able to fix it but he did determine that I have radial nerve palsy. It is supposed to be a very temporary thing, and is caused by a compressed nerve. I just went to see him again today and the tests that he did on me had worse results this time than before and he could visibly see some muscle atrophy in my left hand. He is really worried about it now so he is sending me to someone to get some more tests done (why must these things happen when we have crappy insurance!?) So when I hear more about that I will update.
