Is this diabetes? I had my son (I had gestational diabetes with) in June. Since then, I feel slight dizziness, shakiness, muscle weakness, easily fatigued, pins and needles (on and off) on my arms, cheeks, and sometimes chest. As of the last three, four months I have been having at least two yeast infections a month and I don't know what is causing them (I have good hygiene and sex is an infrequent thing in my house :) My symptoms weren't so bothersome, but as of late, they are really getting in the way of daily life. What is this? My doctors just said, "Oh, it's anxiety, take xanax." I think it is more than that, though. Please help!
Thank you
hi, thanks none of that has even been mentioned before! ill definatly speak to my doctor and see what he says
Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Two things should be ruled out first. One is a pinched cervical spinal nerve. Hence MRI and nerve conduction study should be done. The other is hyperthyroidism, which can be ruled out by a simple blood test. It can also be epilepsy so EEG should be done. Please discuss these possibilities with your doctor if they have not been looked into.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
