i have had a pinched sciatic nerve for about two years.. also.. arthritis, degenerative disc disease and bulging discs at c4 and c5 of my back. in the past 3 days, i have experienced numbmess in the right side of my face and inside my mouth,, ie: tongue, nose , neck .. down my arm and hands. i have been looking on line for anything to keep me from going back to the doctors. i have lost no movement.. just numbness. i have also lost no strength.. just curious.. after reading a few of the posts on this site, my symptoms seem like nothing in comparison.. but i still wondered if anyone had any ideas????
