One last thing; You said: I also don't see HOW anxiety would cause numbness to come and go in same place like this (and with it being 1/2 my body I don't think you followed my links last week when I found this...so I'll do a cut/paste so you can read some...and follow the link: (Mayoclinic) http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/con...877/DSECTION=2 Signs and symptoms of conversion disorder typically affect the function of motor or sensory skills — such as the ability to walk, swallow, see and hear — and simulate a general medical or nervous system condition. Afflictions usually develop suddenly, following a stressful event. The signs and symptoms are related to psychological rather than physical factors, and are not produced voluntarily. Conversion disorder symptoms include: Loss of balance Numbness Paralysis in an arm or leg Loss of the touch sensation Inability to feel pain Inability to swallow Inability to speak Hearing impairment, or deafness Vision impairment, including double vision and blindness Hallucinations Seizures or falling down inexplicably Convulsions Abnormal gait, or other difficulty with walking Trembling Vomiting Diarrhea Inability to urinate Conversion disorder is one of several types of somatoform disorders, in which signs and symptoms create the appearance of a medical illness that has other no medical explanation. Conversion disorder differs from other somatoform disorders — such as hypochondria and somatization disorder — in that it affects primarily sensory and motor functions that are normally under voluntary control. Have a good night!
