Tingling in feet, legs, arms, hands, stomach & back

[angel0013]

I really don't know what to do. I am tingling almost all over, in my feet, legs, arms, hands, stomach and back. 6 doctors later and they tell me it's anxiety, all tests for everything else are negative. This feeling is driving me insane. It's been going on for weeks. I have a hard time believing anxiety brought this on, and am seeking further medical advice. This is effecting me so bad I'm nearly depressed, any ideas?

I have tingling on hands and legs. Also weakness on right arm sometimes. I have bee so scared. I finally had an EMG and an MRI done of my brain and they are negative. The Drs. say its anxiety so i just started taking anxiety pills and hopefully they work. Im also low i vitamin D not sure if that could be causing the tingling also.

I've had intestinal problems for the past 15 years which got progressively worse. Started out with dairy intolerance. Egg intolerance followed a few years later. Then, around 2002 I started feeling nauseous all the time. This went on til 2008 when I started getting spells of visual migranes (you lose sight in a large portion of your field of vision for a span of about 45 mins ... scary as hell the first time). Then I started getting a tingling, burning numbness in my hands and feet. Doctors and neurologists all wrote it off as stress. There's no doubt that stress can be a component, but I'd also been getting canker sores in my mouth for years due to acidity, and doctors will tell you to just avoid acidic foods and maybe take Nexium. By this point I was at wits' end. I reluctantly went to see a naturapath/endocrinologist who put me on an insane dairy/egg/fruit/gluten/wheat/potato/tomato free diet and in the span of two days I felt better than I'd felt in the past 15 years. For two weeks I lived on meat, fish, chicken and green veggies. I unfortunately found out that I'm gluten intolerant as well (and man do I love pasta). It's a hellish diet but all my symptoms have cleared up, including my acidity, and I can honestly say life is worth living again. Moral of the story: if your doctor tells you it's JUST stress, tell 'em to go to hell. There's no doubt stress hurts, and the periods where I felt worst were stressful periods, but I used to be extremely laid back and I suddenly developed panic attacks and general social anxiety. All these things disappeared when I felt better. They may also be a result of how ridiculously exhausted I was all the time (and I didn't realize this til I realized how much extra energy I had once I felt better).
