Hi everyone, starting in December I started getting numbness in my face on the left side only. It starts in the jaw and spreads up around the eye and down along the jawline to my chin. The numbness is also felt in the left side of my neck. My left arm feels heavy with period tingling/pins and needles, and my hand sometimes feels shots of pain in my wrist and knuckles.

I have had 5 episodes already and am having the start of one now. I have been seen by emergency room doctors who assured me I was not having a stroke. It's a strange symptom as I feel like my left side is drooping even to the point where I will think saliva will start drooling out of the left side of my mouth (embarrassing).

I am going to a neurologist on Wednesday hoping I can get some answers. The MRI of my head and neck are not until next month.

Has anyone else experienced this? It's a scary symptom to start all of a sudden after a year and a half!
