My neurological symptoms started almost a year ago, and at first I only experienced burning feet at night that was more of an annoyance than anything. I was losing sleep a couple times a month, but my work schedule allows much flexibility so my way of life was not gravely impacted. However, the past two months have been a nightmare. On Jan. 25 I started again experiencing the burning feet but it did not go away, lingering all day and night for three days. On the third day of this "flare up" I laid down in the bed due to the impeding fatigue and a painful spasms or lightening shock ran through my right arm and my arms have not been the same since. They immediately felt odd and numb.*

Since they have become weak and my hands very clumsy. I am dropping things and legs feel like jello at times. Symptoms vary from day to day but for the past eight weeks I have experienced a combo of lightheadedness, heavy limbs, legs have become weak with exertion, strong heartbeat, muscle fatigue,muscle twitches all over (randomly), some neck and facial muscle fatigue (especially after talking a lot). Within the past couple weeks my hands have started to burn as well.*These are just those tgat have stuck, some symptoms have come and gone and new slight thingspop every other day. This week I have experienced more back back in addition to burning and tingling has become more prominent in lower legs. Physical exertion seems to trigger symptoms along with computer work making my arms give out and go numb in hands.

I have been to my primary doctor 6 times. Tested for many things and ruled out a lot.. Had a brain MRI that was clear, so no MS. B12 okay (450), high alpha gobulins, cortisol spike (looking more into this in 24 hour urine analysis- JUST RECEIVED WORD THAT THIS TEST IS NORMAL), high Mch in total blood count. Other than that all is normal, no lyme (so I think, but I know this is controversial), no rhum art, lupus. I was put on Lyrica, low dose and slowly increased. Didn't see much of improvement for a while. Upped the dose, it helped the burning feet but I felt immense brain fog. I couldn't focus and was not myself. Lowered the dose as of now because I do not want to become immune and dependent on the med until I KNOW what is wrong! I am not one to be highly medicated or cover up symptoms without knowing the cause. I am being referred to a neurologist, but who knows when that appointment will come through. Hoping to get a call sometime this week. Any ideas, suggestions, thoughts, words of encouragement would be great appreciated*
