Balance issues
Stairs slightly difficult
Electric shock pains
Feels like a pebble under my foot
Fatigue
Burning sensation in legs and arms
With my sensations I cannot bear the inside of my arms to touch surfaces
Hope someone can agree I am not mad! Awaiting more tests under neurology department

Hey Mark,
Sorry to hear about the variety of terrible symptoms you've been experiencing. I thought this introductory information may be useful to you.
Type of Nerves
1. Motor
2. Sensory
3.Autonomic
Motor nerves control the movement of all muscles under conscious control, such as those used for walking, grasping things, or talking.
Sensory nerves transmit information such as the feeling of a light touch, temperature, or the pain from a cut.
Autonomic nerves control organs to regulate activities that people do not control consciously, such as breathing, digesting food, and heart and gland functions.
