Hi wanted to share with the community out there what I am going through at the moment. Two years ago I had a period of neuropathy which lasted 3 months , this left me with a numb left foot ., which sometimes bothers me on and off. Six weeks ago I had a flu type illness or what I felt to be viral . Since then I have had extreme exhaustion which I have never felt before . By numb left foot is even worse . I have tingling sensations in both hands and feet , which is moving up to knees and arms . My arms and legs feel weak, difficult to type . My face feels numb and is also tingling , this is moved to my lips . My nose also feels like it has been punched . My upper chest is tight and my neck is stiff and painful . My arms are also tight just above the elbow. I have tingling over other parts of my body as well. My feet/ hands go from burning to feeling ice cold especially when tired. Also after hot showers I can feel so exhausted I have to rest . I also struggle with balance and have really bad travel sickness as a passenger even in front of car . Sorry for going on , it makes me sounds like i am crazy . Feels so stressed been off work for 6 weeks . It makes life so difficult , I sure most people feel that it is in my head . Gp first gave me anti-depression tablets, but they didn’t help so stoped taking them. He has referred me to a neurologist , but thinks it is more like chronic fatigue syndrome. I am not sure myself . All tests have come back normal , as they did 2 years ago . Did see a neurologist then but all test she did came back normal . Didn’t have MRI last time so hopefully will get one . A friend of ours had MS and she has put that thought in my head. Sorry to bother you.
