Arms feelin weak & head pressure

Hi

I have been having the feeling of constant weak arms and legs and been feeling pressure in back of my head with a tingling type feeling..thats has been going on for more than a month now..

before that i used to get dizzy type feeling and felt light headed..

i had a ct scan done and all sorts of blood tests and doctor said that everything is normal and that its all in my head and that i have been stressing..

now i am starting to think its anxiety because i havent got any better and i am not on any medication apart from multi vitamins..

I was woundering if i should get a mri scan would it show more or is the ct scan enough?..

I know now I am not alone, I have had theses sensations for months. I have weakness in my legs and arms, but more in my legs, I need to strech when they come.
I went to the doctor, he told me that I am fine, all the test were negative, so he gave me more pills for these problems. Somebody can suggest me, should i take more pills, when I am already taking medicne for my depression and colesterol.
Please I do not know what else to do. I need some help.Thank you.
Best regards to everyone.

I also have a lot of sensations in my head, one of them is pressure, I get a lot of headaches, and a lot of tingling. From the sounds of it, you have anxiety. If you need peace of mind, you can request and MRI, but the CT Scan does a great job. Perhaps try talking with your Dr. regarding an anxiety med, and being learning some coping strategies for anxiety.

Take Care and Keep us posted.
