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? |
