A Ridiculous Ailment
November 8, 2016
Cervical radiculitis is a compression of neck vertebrae where a nerve or two radiating off from the spinal cord swells and cuts off fluid transfers along the line. In my case constriction of nerves # 6 and 7 have given me a numb left arm and destroyed my ability to touch-type.
After many weeks of physio I’m getting strength back in the arm, but touch-typing will be the last skill to return.
Too many trips under my Porsche Cayenne’s dash to fix the air conditioning caused this pinched nerve, but the HVAC system now works, and the rest of the car has provided good service.
