Urgency of diagnosis / treatment - How quickly does nerve damage occur?
I'm seeing a neurologist in 2 weeks but I don't know if that is soon enough.
My left arm and lower left leg feel like they are half asleep all the time. Also occasional sharp pains. My local doc said not to worry about the numbness unless I get weakness or motor nerve problems. I don't have those yet; only sensory nerves seem to be affected. I'm Male, 32, good health and no prior issues.
Is 2 weeks soon enough to see a neurologist? Am I likely to get nerve damage before that time or before they can complete their tests?
Thanks, Chris
