hi, i wondered how you were both doing as i have the exact same symptoms also, and am worried sick. thank you.
Just saw your discussion about the burning and numbness in multiple parts of the body. I am having the same symptons in one arm and one leg- burning and numbness. It is beginning to move to the other arrm. The neurologist wantst to a nerve conduction test. I am not sure what this will prove. Wondering how you are doing/
Hi there,
Thanks for getting back to me. I figured it was most likely due to something more systemic but started wondering whether it was possible that I could have more than one nerve pinched at the same time that could be causing all the problems. My b12 was checked and it was fine, I do not have lyme disease, nor am I diabetic. I had a brain MRI and that did not show anything and now I am scheduled for a spinal MRI.
Thanks again for your input.
Cheers!
Sounds like peripheral neuropathy which is damage to nerves of the peripheral nervous system, which may be caused either by diseases of/or trauma to the nerve or the side-effects of systemic illness. There are many conditions that cause this from Lyme's Disease to MS to vitamin B12 deficiency. See a more indepth list of causes on wikipedia.
