Symptoms:
* Ball of Foot Pain when stepping off barefooted (sharp nerve pain)
* Muscle Fasciculations in both calf's, Achilles and feet
* Tight calf muscles
* Tingling in legs and sometimes upper left side of back
* Occasional random nerve stings in different parts of body, usually in legs (5 or so per day, sometimes no stings in a 24 hour period)
Testing:
* Had blood work done, B12 is 1,000+ and all else checked out 100% normal, no mercury, arsenic, etc poisoning
* Had MRI's of brain done and it showed all normal
One doctor says it's idiopathic and stress/anxiety related and not in-line with PN, while another doctor says it might be PN and wants to conduct deeper testing and do EMG tests (which I told were painful).
I don't like being prodded and poked. Truth is some docs are only interested in making more $$$ and billing me for more tests, which might not be needed.
Questions:
Are my symptoms in-line with PN or not?
Should I do more testing (EMG) or just wait it out to see if things get better or worse?
