Clinical narrative: My entire right arm, from my shoulder to my fingers, went numb. That stopped and then my arm was hurting. When I got up the next day, I had a horrible migraine and I felt like I had COVID again. The migraine continued and I went to the doctor on Thursday. I took Tylenol, but it only provided like 2 hours of relief. It didn't resolve the pain, but it did lessen it. My doctor told me to try an OTC med first, so I tried Extra Strength Excedrin and it went away. The first day that I didn't have a headache was exactly a week later. I'm not sure if they will return, but you're fine right now.
