Blood clots and Neurological issues while preg.

Ok so I've talked to you guys on here about my sciatic nerve and my feet and legs hurting and going numb. Well now my arms and hands are going numb as well. My doctor instructed me to go to the hospital and get a evaluation. To make sure that it's not a blood clot or something going on. I really don't want to go to the hospital cause every time I do they try to blow me off. When I was having gallbladder attacks at 14wks they gave me tylenol3's without doing any kind of research and sent me home. I back at the hospital a couple days later and admitted for 3days cause i have blood in my stool (sry if tmi). That time I just passed a gallstone. I don't want to waste my time if they aren't going to properly evaluate me and do what they need to do. What do you all think? I'm so frustrated. Please help.

I would go just in case.  I had the same thing going on with numbness in right leg and left arm.  I still have it.  Now its consistant but they wanted to rule out stroke.  I went to the ER.  Waitied a million years.  They did an MRI and guess what...I'm not dying!   I could have told them that but better safe then sorry!   Good luck

Have the Dr. call ahead for you, and tell them what he wants them to do. They will usually get you in right away if the Dr. calls for you. Are you taking asprin? Ask your Dr. if you should.

Have you not seen a neurologist yet?  If not, you should, and he can order an MRI throught outpatient radiology.  You end up w/a small copay, a dr. visit wait, and some answers to whether or not this is serious.
