Has this ever happened to anyone?!


Has this ever happened to anyone?!

Postby Jaybot » Apr 23, 2001 @ 2:32am

I woke up two days ago, and my thumb was asleep!  Not numb,but asleep, like when your foot falls asleep after cutting off hte circulation for too long... it's been two days and it still hasn't 'woke up'... I'm kinda worried there might be something more to it.  And you can imagine how annoying it is when I'm trying to play games! :)

Damn it I wanted the first post. But, uhm. Your 'thumb' problem has never happened to me. Maybe you should try hitting it with a large sledge hammer.

Probably, but my normal doctor is like 250 miles away, and I don't feel like driving for a couple hourse just to get my thumb looked at, I've got games to play and some uh.. studying to do!

Nah, then I might have a reason to go back to the Ipaq and use the stylus to control.. then I could just hold the stlyus in my mouth while I use my other thumb to control the firing.... :)

Your thumb is not working? uhmmm, Does it show an error message when you try to use it? Maybe a "nail.tmb error?" ;D

There goes Chuck, blabbering all over the place and being morbid.  Boy, If I wasn't just posting to get more posts, I would say something worthwhile!

Hey, that happened to me before. Not my thumb....just my right hand. I read somewher about this, normally happens to people (*read=computer users/gamers). Until they invent a neuron-controllable gamepad, you better see a doctor....err....can you drive without your thumb?
