Default Somebody help!!!!!!!!!!!!

Long story so here I go....

I started to have some pretty intense lower back pain the last week of April 09 which felt like fire 30 seconds after sitting down and continuing till i got up. It then started hurting towards my right lower pelvic region. I went to the back doc (who had no answer) who referred me to a phys therapist who gave me a back brace (whice made it hurt even worse)! Saw Phys Medicine twice, internal med, GP, and a chiropractor twice with no luck, had an MRI of lower back and it showed nothing. Only pain killers that put me to sleep and dont work. All this time getting worse.

Finally a week ago I was @ California Adventure just standing there and my legs felt like they were going numb. Saw a Neurologist who said i had carpel tunnel. The next day both legs, feet and hands would go numb on and off. Finally yesterday I was going numb in both arms just below the elbow, feet, big toe, calf down to ankle, twitching in right index finger, right pinky felt like it had a rubber band tied around it and tingling (that lasted for 5-6 hours), pressure in my temples, and hot flashes in my face and neck, and occasional nausea.

I went to the ER and they diagnosed me with numbness. Huh ya think! Finally today, I was @ my desk typing and felt like my arms were 1000 pounds each. I have also noticed that I am very forgetful @ times. I can forget something in mid conversation, and I am noticing that some of my words are not being pronounced correctly. I am so scared, someone please help!!! Does this sound like Peripheral Neurapathy??
