Hello all. My name is Alta and I just joined this forum. It was an emotional realization that I needed to seek answers about the problems I have been having.
It all started Jan. 8, 2011 on the day in which I took a sinus pill that caused me the agonizing pain I am in today. A couple of days before that I was on Naproxen, but I stopped cause it was making my vision blurry. Well, immediately after I took the sinus pill, my right arm went numb and started tingling. I thought it would go away as the day went on but it didn't. The day after, the tingling spread to my feet and arms. To make a long story short, it is still happening till this day.
To make things even weirder , I noticed that one Sunday the pain had subsided. Here is where it gets weird. I ate a bowl of ice cream and immediately the pain came back. I was dumbfounded. It gets weirder. Last Sunday the pain went away again for three whole days. Then while at skool I ate my lunch and then ate a cookie from Stake N Shake, immediately again the pain came back. What in the heck is going on?
It seems as if food is irritating my nerves. That is beyond strange . The tingling is just about everywhere now and I have some occasional shaking in my hand. I am seeing a neurologist soon. Has anyone ever herd of this before? I am only 22 years old. As far as I can remember I was COMPLETELY FINE until I took that sinus pill. I am really concerned. I can't stop crying. Please help someone.
Thank u.
