Please answer from experience.....?
Ok about 8 months ago, i had this little bit on my toe, went to the foot doctor and he gave me a shot and it was gone within a few days, also took some antibiodics, few days later i got this tingling and pins and needle sensation all over my body including, muscle weakness, headache, eye pain, floaters, fatigue, you name it, took brain and cervial spine mris, came back normal, cerival spine showed 3 bluging disks which the neuro said could not be the cause of my symptoms, after 2 months of this, it all went away except for the floaters, by surprise, now 8 months later i have the same exact symptoms and some more, burning feet or really cold feet and back, fatigue, bigtime muscle weakness, blurry vision, I have started to say my words a bit thicker then before, my "th" words, its very strange, did another brain mri and it was normal, what could be going on, should i do an mri of my thoracic and lumbar spine? What could this be?

Answer 1

i haven't personally had this experience but maybe you should be checked out for a possible blood clot

Answer 2

Because of the "all over the body" nature of your symptoms, I think you need to be suspicious of a central nervous system problem. Perhaps a neurologist would be the best person to help you to get to the bottom of this. You may require some different types of scanning for your brain (not just MRI) to see the true picture there.

I doubt that an MRI of thoracics or lumbars would be revealing. It really sounds more like something systemic (body-wide) to me.

Answer 3

The bulging disks in your cervical spine would cause symptoms in your arms, not all over your body. Your symptoms point to something in the brain. MRI of the lumbar or thoracic spine would not help.

Have you been checked for things like multiple sclerosis, myesthenia gravis, and ALS? You should see a neurologist ASAP. Good luck.

Answer 4

Yes, get the thoracic MRI. But that wouldn't cause all your symptoms, certainly not the problems with the speech.

It sounds like you have some kind of neurological problem. If the neurologist you talked to before didn't find anything, see another. I'm tempted to suggest a possibility of stroke as well.

Don't take my word- But you might also want to check for Parkinson's Disease and similar conditions as well.

Good luck! I hope you feel better soon!
