Face tingling arm tingling and leg? Neuro said nothing?
 

started with a physical therapist 6 months told me to stregthen core and gave me a simple program to follow not crazy lifts but lately I been getting BOTH LEFT ARM AND LEG tingling numbness with NO PAIN then few days later my cheecks and jaw line are tingling even tounge and scalp it varys and lessens and worssens throughout the day.... what could have happen I don't lift heavy and have been working on stregething program. went to hosptial and got cleared from ct scan and blood work for being NOT IN STROKE situation. but what could this be and is it fixable without surgrey

i also relize its been 12 weeks now any type of lifting makes me tingle all over.
neuro got me to do brain mri ..... got results written report says unremarkable.... guessing thats good?
now what? he said it isnt neck related? is this possible? or is he miscordinating ..... he said im MS FREE and it cant be neck related.... i do relize thou i wake up in morning sometimes with it.... and if i lift heavy bags with my arms i feel some type of shock through arm...... could this be related? any ideas?

Anyone?
Im so lost in this situation?
Both neurogolist said not neurogoly.....

Wow I experienced similar symptoms last 2 months.
Again MRI on the head (MRI plus MR Angiography and Venography)showed nothing....


But... MRI on the neck was different... disc herniations on almost every level. In addition, straightened cervical lordosis (aka as military neck).


I also made duplex Doppler sonography where there was minimal difference in left and right para-vertebral arteries. Doctors say this is not a problem, but I am worried a lot!

Same
Bro....

I was eating tuna daily and he said to stop asap and i drank alot of coffee he said go stop that also... mri of cervical neck was ok it had littlr herination.... but nothing at all crazy... no matter if i lift or i dont it makes my face,chest pec, arm and leg tingle pins and needles and noone has any idea wtf it could be and why.... im going nuts

Tuna has a lot of Mercury (hg) in it, maybe this is the reason your doc told you stop eating tuna... Mercury is very bad for nervous system but I doubt it is the case for your symptoms. I would make blood test for heavy metals just to be sure this is not the case.

I was eating tuna.... one pound can a day for few months but i am lost...... seen 2 neuro and they cant find anything wrong.... im losing my mind

It you are still lifting, stop for now.

Do walking or swimming perhaps instead -- check with MD.


Are you on any medications with this as a side effect?
I get tingling due to a side effect of one of my medications.
Does your MD call the tingling Paresthesia like mine does?


Medline Plus has a list of possibilities including tick bites, lack of vitamin 12, seafood toxins, . . . .

Get a blood test for lack of vitamin 12
Get tested for mercury poisoning.

Hi livinlife.

I would suggest you see your Primary Care Physician(PCP) and discuss your symptoms and when they happen. Your PCP can do testing as well as refer you to the appropriate specialist if needed.

My first thought was disc herniation(s) and or bulging discs. Your cervical MRI has already shown a herniation and it's possible that you have other disc problems in the Thoracic and /or Lumbar area. These types of problems can cause Neurological symptoms. A spine surgeon/Neuro-surgeon would be the specialist you would need to see for spine problems, not a Neurologist.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) does not present as you are describing. Movement does not affect symptoms of MS. What is experienced with MS happens regardless if the person is sitting, standing, walking, or laying down.

Eat high quality tuna if you need to eat tuna...SkipJack is said to have the Lowest Mercury content in it....it's from Wild Planet.

Consider working with Inositol for the tingling issue. I've been using Inositol for years. Another product for the tingling nerve issue is: Sphingolin. I used it some yrs ago with Inositol and now only use Inositol. I had a lot of nerve damage from hip replacement....

Do your research

Did mri for brain and neck....
Did all blood for b-12 and all clear
Seen 2 neuros..... both cant find anything

Also been stopped for 13 weeks lifting just walking 1-1.5 hour outside a day..... but i wake up with this and neuro said no way face can tingle from neck its not possible legs yes but not face

Havent been tested for mecury..... but will do it but why would it be like this over mecury and its been almost 3 weeks off all fish
