Diagnose me..

So sunday evening, I fell asleep on the couch for an hour, and when I woke up, my pointer finger knuckle on my left hand was super sore and stiff. I figured I slept on it wrong or something.

But here we are 2 days later, and the pain and stiffness (in just that one knuckle), is still killing me..its actually a little worse. I can barely move it and the knuckle area is actually a little swollen. I didn't do anything to it prior to waking up with it like this. Im wondering when I should give it til before calling a dr. My damn finger is killing me. Ideas?

Re: Diagnose me..

  • I am, but only about 5 weeks along. This knuckle pain came so suddenly and its super painful...its weird. I can barely move my left pointer finger without sharp severe pain in it.

    I was debating calling abd getting in to see my GP, but considering I'm pg, I'm not sure what they'd even do for me, besides tell me to ice it and take tylenol.

  • Well, I ended up getting in to see my primary dr (not my OB). She sent me for a bunch of blood work to rule out Lyme disease (and other tick borne) diseases, as well as gout.

    Wtf. I am so over the nonstop medical shit lately. And now I'm even more nervous!
