Why on Earth are your asking this question on a public forum?

See a doctor immediately.

I seem to have a developing medical issue. Should I contact my doctor, go to the ER, or ask random people on the internet what to do?

Sending thoughts and prayers....

Timeline? Are we talking 15 mins , hours, days?
The losing strength is the most troubling part to me.. I would go to a dr immediately.. any type of partial paralysis (numbing, loss of motor control etc) can be a very bad sign (from heart attack to brain aneurysm)

I would go to the emergency room depending on your plan.

If you have a doctor call their office and they may be able to better access with a few questions.

Probably not a stroke but I say go - you only live one life and yours is too young to fuck with.

Might be a sign of a stroke. Go to a doctor.

Just cut it off. You don't need two arms.

I hope that you got it looked at. How are you now?

Critical care if one is nearby. If not, and doc not available, hospital.

Based upon the limited information you provided I have no idea but if it is serious enough in your mind then you should probably check it out.

Call an abulance now...

Not enough info. If sudden, and severe, hit the emergency room.

Go to the hospital. If it's something significant, you'll be in the right place.

Good luck.

If this is sudden onset and something you’ve never experienced before, you need to seek medical attention ASAP.. regardless of your age.

Go immediately and have it checked out. Bypass the GP and go straight to A and E. Never ignore symptoms!

this isn't doctors dot com! seriously, emergency rooms have to treat you, insurance or not. go!

I suggest amputation using a rusty butter knife. The resulting blood poisoning will get you off work on sick leave while your paperwork goes through for disability and retraining (I suggest stagecoach driver). Tell me which hospital you will go to and I'll arrange a series of enemas (4 a day) by hacking your insurance account (I could really use the last 4 digits of your SS #).

Sounds like it could be a bulging disc in your neck, you should have it checked out.

Is it chronic and getting worse over a period of weeks or is it more recent? If it's recent, I would suggest it has something to do with the way you are sitting at your desk, or sleeping. Try changing your posture. If it's been weeks or months, then it may be something else and definitely worth checking, but dont' go to a hospital, get a PT referral from your doctor.

Take baby aspirin at 70 strength and drink water. Insurance or not try an emergency room. Whatever it is this will get it documented.

There's been a lot of this going on around me lately. I have this happening too. Numbness is nerves being pinched. It can be a minor thing in your muscles that physical and massage therapy can fix or it can be bones pinching nerves in your joints and spine. Bone problems are serious and get worse with time. So if the problem persists you should see a doc. X rays and MRI s can tell the story.

Are you sitting on it?

I’d go but I have insurance. I’m not a doctor but I think left side bad, right side meh. Might consider contacting 911 over a dating site.
