peripheral nerve/MSG?
 

Hi,

My name is Stephanie.

I ate pretty clean, almost Paleo, and I take a good supplement combo every day.

Last week, I bought some Jenny Craig food. After 2 1/2 days of eating it, my left leg went kind weak and off balance. EKG and CT scan of brain and heart were normal and I passed the physical tests by 3 Dr.'s.

However, it moved to my entire to my left arm & hand and I got really, really tired. Resting and meditation helped and I've started a detox diet. My gut instinct was some kind of neuro chemical issue from the MSG in the JC food since I had not been eating all that stuff.

My back/neck x-rays are normal and have been looked at my 2 Dr.'s already. I see another Dr. tomorrow, but it's really frustrating.

I'm opening to any help or encouragement. I have a 3 year old and it's so emotionally hard not to be able to really take care of him.

Also my Dad passed away about a month ago and I have been pretty stressed.
