    Hands and arms heavy -- why?
    I have been driving quite a bit today, and I do not know if that has anything to do with this. But about an hour ago, all of a sudden I started having this feeling that my arms and especially my hands were getting really heavy and I sort of felt like I was becoming disoriented. It was getting bad enough that I had to pull over and have my wife drive the rest of the way home. I did not really feel like my hands were numb, they just felt heavy and I felt strange. I have not ever had this feeling before after driving all day. I have taken my blood pressure two times since I got home and it has been normal, 122/65. I napped on the way home, and now the heaviness in my arms and hands is better but not gone and I still feel a little out of sorts. I do not feel bad or have any pain, just feel weird. Any ideas on what this might be? Thanks, Mike
