at that time i been taking 20mg parnate (few days reduced from 30mg). been on parnate 2+ months. and also that time been taking risperidone 0.5mg (2 weeks or more)
started on friday when i woke up. it felt like my left hand and arm were asleep, in my arm it mostly went away after some minutes (but felt it still near my shoulder for a day) but my hand... fingers... numb! at first so numb i couldn't even use one left hand finger to type, grab anything, do anything with it!
as days would go by it would improve bit by bit, but it never has gone away.
at least now i can use my left hand somewhat in typing but one finger of it only, i can grab things but not be able to apply much pressure, squeezing a conditioner bottle for example can be difficult and other day to day activities.
could risperdal have caused this? or parnate? sure my doses may seem Low for most but I am someone who is sensitive to meds so perhaps for others my dose is the equivilent of double etc.
PLS help, give me any advice, clinic gave me meloxicam to take daily.
will this go away
