tingling and pins and needles in arms , hands and feet and legs

[ljwel]

In the last year I have suffered with tingling, burning , pins and needles in the feet, hands and legs. I also have a problem with my lower back and neck. My symptoms seen to last about 4to 5 weeks and then gradually go away. I get spasms in my back starting in the lower back and shooting upto the neck. this can very painful at times.  I get fatigued in the afternoon after being busy all morning, sometimes need a little sleep before I can carry on with other jobs. My GP has done all the blood tests and I am waiting for the results.  I am also waiting to go into hospital for laporscopy and cystoscopy to check my bladder, (feels like i have got a urine infection with the pain),bowel and fallopian tubes due to me being sterilised 2 years ago. I would like to know what else my doctor could do for me

Hi! Thanks for asking...where do I begin? I have so much to talk about. What type of marital problems are you facing? I ask for many reasons. Murial Hemmingway swears by single nasal breathing for 5-10 minutes to reduce stress & gain energy. She only does Yoga now for fitness. She looks beautiful!!......Keep the tip of your tounge placed on the back of your front teeth to prevent any mouth breathing...relax and allow yourself to feel your belly and lower abdominal to fill with air and count to 8-10 minimum on each inhale & exhale. She swears it clears her focus 110%. It's a great stress reducer.
Repeat beautiful positive affirmations as you focus & breathe.
I Sally am being freed from this bondage which no longer has a hold on me" I command you to leave in the name of Jesus Christ!
Greater is He that is in me than he that is this world.
"I Sally, can do all things through Christ, who gives me strength." I Sally am blessed with all the fruits of the Spirit... Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,and SELF CONTROL!
Why is the 9th fruit of the spirit so hard to achieve?
I'm interested in knowing your marital stress because this all happened to my best friend - her dad is a preacher &/or a minister. Her husband is a borderline personality and a witty abuser.It all started 7 years ago. Ohhh... How do I state this?
Do you believe in spiritual warefare? There is a epidemic that is running rampant and the most sobering fact of the year was the Catholic Church just opened their 1st school of exorcism.
They believe that people are taking on possesive, controling hosts that manifest themselves in negative medical ways and there are specific warfare prayers and lifestyle managements to offset this epidemic in the millinium. I could go as far as saying I've had the unforunate experience of trying to help her and dealing w/ it and suffering the consequences of not knowing what I was basking in~ where after visiting a mental hospital I had a severe reactions that only the TBN channel has actually pin pointed.I love Paula White - you can only know her glory after hearing her story.
It all started w/ my best friend innocently began taking on the characteristics of her husbands naredewell unfruitful bar dwelling lifestyle.It was a downward spiral straight through the gates of he--(double hockey sticks). I was just an innocent, caring bystander & friend at the time. I have learned daily to vamp up with spiritual warfare. Her anxiety attacks demanded perscription medication and soon after that the side effects were devastating and the system does NOT WORK! Her husband found out how to work the mental system- he can put her back in any time and cry wolf (he lies just to go out on a date and get rid of her permantly for 2 weeks to a month - each time hoping it will be permanent!)
It's sick and the most evil I've ever seen. She is literally almost destroyed as the person we all knew her to be. Her face became like the elephant man while she is under heavy attack. I felt them trying to manifest on me as I visited & will NEVER again set foot in the midst of He-- (you know the wards) and I always thought I was so strong - it so couldn't happen to me.
Anyhow, Sally...I really feel after diving in and reading all your other chat comments (sorry- I like to know as much as I can before I can truthfully address your issue deep down)you may highly have a manifestation since you definately have ruled out everything else. I would highly suggest watching the healers on TBN and taking it seriously. Normally the manifestations start w/ obsessions and anxiety attacks,worrying etc. Unspeakable Joy and Peace are blessings. You can have complete healing. Its there for you to research and take.
I pray you will never experience full throttle manifestations like the ones I've seen on a friend. She benefitted many people and had a gift of helping people become better until she met her husband and he stripped her of her self respect, worth, and dignity. Anyhow...what do you have to lose?

I have a question about aspartime......
How long does it take after you have stopped eating products with aspartime to feel the results?? I stopped  about a month ago and still have tingling and other symptmos ive desribed....
if you read my posts you know i am the "crazy lady" obsessed with ms, because one dr. i saw years ago thoguth i might have it. and so i cant seem to shakie it even though my mri's and spinal tap were negative...i just start thinking that since they were taken 15 years ago, maybe they werent that good at picking up lesions....i have to stop worrying about it and get on with my life..but how when i still have symptoms?

[sally456]

the burning you speak of..does it feel a little like a sunburn??
My burning I have is in the back of my thighs and it usually starts in one spot on back of right thigh and then sometimes..like now, its the back of both thighs.. Also have tingling, and strange sensations like something is either crawling under my skin or something is dripping. I have these feelings not just in legs, but head and a little in arms and torso.  I wrote to the nuerologist on this forum and im afraid he didnt see all of my posts and maybe if he did he would have responded differently...my post is" ms or not..what should i do?".
I know that stress can bring on symptoms like those im having with the tingling, but what about other symptoms??  like the burning?..and does it last this long? (its been about a month with the burning) other symptoms ive had before mostly when im very stressed.  
I guess I should listen to the dr. when he said by now Im almost 39, this all started with bladder problems when I was 21. I would know if I had ms or not....
Could someone with similar symptoms please respond to me..thanks!
ONe other thing...the tip of my index finger on right hand has become a little numb ...i noticed it about 2 weeks ago....again, i am under much marital stress right now...could that cause numbness tough for 2 weeks!???

Wow! Thanks Pazman 1. I was thinking of trying something close on those lines myself.  What is the brand or brands of essential amino acids you are embarking on?
   I bought that Seweedish MD's Gamma Amino Butyric Acid called "In Shape -Dream Shape" which is supposed to help trigger the production of HGH & help you sleep through the night.I haven't dabbled in it yet because I cannot afford to lose any more sleep. The label saysIt is common for some users to experience initial nervousness, tremors, mild tingling, or increased heart rateafter taking.  This reaction fades quickly.  Hmmmm.... Hw quickly I'd like to know?
And of course the back lable always says...
***These statements have not been evaluated by the Food & Drug Administration.  This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.  O.K. Do they all say this?
Funny Pazman 1: My symptoms lasted 6 months also and even emergency mamogram: since late 30's has left 2 family women members w/ rapid, unrecoverable breast cancer.
After seeing your comment I realize I was burning the candles at both ends and highly sleep deprived when this occured.

I had pins and needles and burning in my hands, feet, legs, arms, back, all over constantly now for 4 weeks. I had these same symptoms 5 years ago for 6 months. At that time I had 3 MRI's Brain, upper and Lower spine. numerous blood tests, EMG, B12, lymes, heavy metal toxcisity,thryroid, every test you could think off. they were all negative. The doctors put me on neurontin, did not work, Paxil, did not work, Chiropractor, did not work, Physical therapy, did not work. So I decided I would have to live with it. Well lo and behold after about 6 months it went away. I was fine for 5 years and now its back. I had a blood test again, negative. They want to test me for sleep apnia. I will be tested in a week, I am not sure how that would give me these sensations, but I am willing to try anything. I am going to start a regiment of Essential amino acid, which is supposed to stimulate you body to produce HGH. I think that perhaps if I do have sleep apnia, I am not producing any HGH. Maybe this is causing my problem.

To finish... Yes, there could be an underlying medical problem yet...more than likely lower nerve back pain may radiate to the pelvis (if all else has been ruled out!) I even went as far as having sexually transmitted disease check up and nothing - I'm faithfully married. The pain hurt and I was willing to go the test lengths - all blood tests fine - no deficiencies.
Sleep patterns made a huge difference also. I was losing rem sleep in my 30's - It is said you even loose loads of HGH as you enter 30's to 40's... I'm feeling it!
I believe chiropractors can help - however you sound like me...
that would be my last result after trying everything myself because of lack of time and my knowledge w/ a BS degree in Sports Medicine.O.K. I've even thought MS - that would be devestating.
Really... I now know why they call it mid-life crisis because I cannot stay up late anymore and look refreshed like the 21 year olds! Lattes are not hardly even working like in college.
Oh last comment... I took a Z-Pack (5 day antibiotic regimen) after one GP looking at me like I was crazy.My back pain symptoms clearly went away! Explain that! Hmmm...
