Help Symptoms for about 2 weeks now - what to do?

Hello,

After a lot of stress getting a proper test done for my balance and vision complaints (they determined unilateral vestibular hypofunction, no diagnosis), my right face became a bit numb without it being visible. Has not gone ever since, but remained stable.

After a few days both my feet started to buzz heavily while at rest. Changed into pain within the heel and sole (the arch). A day or two later, the pain also settled into my hamstrings. Seems to be somewhat stable now, with some pains changing positions in knees, shins and ankles. Feels like nerve pain.

During the night I also experience increased hearthrate when I roll over in bed. Don't know if this is due blood pressure issues, or because of vestibular issues. I do not experience any anxiety or dizzy feeling, just pulse pumping to 140 or something, several turns per night.

My fingers and hand also feel weird since March. I expected this due to extensive smartphone usage, but perhaps the numbness and pain is something else...

I think I have peripheral neuropathy, especially since my vestibular nerve has proven issues as well.

Anyhow, my GP does not want to do a thing, and is letting me wait for an appointment for neurologist in the end of July, which I had already planned since May because of the, by then unknown, vestibular issues. About my cardiac issues he says it might pass over time and is no reason to worry about!

Could anyone give me advice on how to seek proper care for my situation? I feel like I should push for testing and try to get a diagnosis to see if this all can put to a halt.. I feel like it is progressing rather fast at the moment.

Thanks, Hugo
