The other night I got this throbbing feeling in my right arm and it was going numb. Mike was already sleeping but since I’m a hypochondriac I woke him up asking what it could be. My mistake for just saying arm and not which one he said, "If it’s your left one it’s a sign of a heart attack". I told him it was my right arm and he then went on and told me that then there is nothing to worry about and I should just try to sleep. Well that answer wasn’t good enough for me and I decided to Google my symptoms. The first thing that came up was Wiki Answers and as I started reading I couldn’t stop laughing. This is what it said.

What are possible causes of pain and throbbing in your right arm and wrist?

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• A bad sprain
• Arthritis
• Your arm was run over by a Sherman tank
• You were shot in the arm
• You have an excessively large animal chewing on your arm

Knowing that none of the above happened to me I calmed down and I could fall asleep. The next morning my arm was back to feeling normal.
