Question Title: tremor or nerve damage?

Forum: Neurology Forum
Topic: Dystonia

I have variuos evolving sypmtoms including
buzzing/vibratory sensations all over but mostly in hands and feet. These sensations in my hands are so strong that they actually make my fingers shake.
Burning in arms and arms look like they are blotchy and sunburned. A trmor like rumbling snesation that starts at the top of my head and moves down my spine, feels like my head is shaking. Burnig and numbness off and on in my calf. My neck muscles feel sore and feel like they freeze up. My teeth feel like they want to begin chattering. This all started 6 months ago and progressed to this level. I've had MRI of cervical spine, brain, spinal tap, emg, ana, etc. No nerve conduciton test yet. I am confused and do know where to turn now.

Dear Shane,
Thank you for the question and sorry for the delay in replying.
It sounds like you have complex problem. It will be impossible to diagnose
your problem on this Forum.
Some of your symptoms can be a result of nerve damage and if you have
not had a nerve conduction test one may be ordered by your doctor.
THe fact that the EMG is normal means the muscles sampled are most
likely healthy (blood and nerve supply intact).

Good luck to you.
