I'm having an extremely heavy menstrual cycle with severe cramping ( not uncommon for me). i awoke today to weakness in my left arm. it's not severe.

Arm neuropathy: Compression of the brachial plexus of your arm may be the culprit. It is not related to yoyur period. You have to make sure that you haven't had a stroke. You need an exam if your arm isn't better ASAP.
