I have a multitude of symptoms, some come and go. When one transient symptom abates, another usually starts up:
Chronic fatigue.
Increase in salivation, but not close to drooling. Feels like I have to swallow constantly.
Electric shock sensations in feet and hands with "every" meal. Onset is within a minute or two of eating. Bottoms of feet also burn with "every" meal. Plus, these symptoms "always" move to any area of damage (ie. sprained ankle) until it has healed. Eating can be very painful.
Facsiculation type sensations in feet, ankles, sometimes lower legs.
Periods when my hands drop things. Can be left or right, but never at the same time. (EMG/NCV was normal)
Electric shock sensations that shoot thru my feet (sometimes one, usually both) and head (along with myclonic like jerks) at the onset of sleep.
Pulsations in visual field that doc says are probably silent migraines.
Nightsweats, usually 1 a night...but sometimes 2 or 3. Episodes often last for a week to a week and a half.
Finger tips wrinkle up (like they have been in water) between meals. Then, when I eat, my finger tips, to the first nuckle down, turn bright red and fill back out like normal.
Other people have noticed that I am having some memory problems.
Very sensitive to heat and cold.
There are alot of other symptoms, but these are some of the oddest or most distressing.
I have had tests to check for food allergy, circulation problems, arthritis, lupus, etc., and they all came back okay. Regular panel of blood tests came back okay.
I do have irregular blood sugar and a family history of type II diabetes. It is not unusual for my blood sugar to rise over 130 mg/dl within 20 minutes of a meal and then swing down that much within an hour (recent Hemoglobin A1c was 4.8%). I have never been overweight.
I was wondering if you think there is a link between the metabolic problems I have and the neurologic symptoms. I would appreciate any thoughts you might have and any testing you might think would be relevant.
