About Me: Male, 40, los angeles - CA, member since Apr 2010
I need help from a neuroligest and dont have insurance.
Problums: numbness in both hands pinky finger and ring finger ... both hands.VERY PAINFULL!!! ... [More]

Numbness in both feet, more so in left side,,, you can stick a needle on the top onf my left foot and i cannot feel it,,, right foot is the same but not as bad.

I have had Chiropractor work done for 4 months, 4 times a month= 16 visits and no help.
I have a very pinched nerve(s) somewhere and need help on how to get help.
I live in san diego and need a low cost place for help."Med-cal wont help... no one will help.

Dear Friend,
I need you to get NCV done for the upper and lower extremities and analysis of your blood sugars.
This is the least i can suggest you , which can give us a good clue about your problem.
Since you don't have insurance, so i am not pushing for the specific tests as they are too expensive....
We really need to know the level of the pinched nerves as well as know, if you have any Neuropathy due to increased sugars.

Please post me, once you are done with it.

Regards...

I did a blood check for diabetes and the reading was 101 on the meter, i was told this was good and that i did not have a problum there.
I believe this is a nerve related problum, and will search in this direction, please let me know of any other ideas you have , and thanks a million!!!!
