array of symptoms - advice for testing
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi there,
I'm currently experiencing a variety of problems. Im a 30 year old male and was fit and healthy until this year. In January this year I had a rushing feeling through my legs, felt almost like warm blood rushing around. In late Feb I had a heat sensation in my left foot that happened a couple of times per minute lasting a couple of seconds. THis lasted 2 weeks and was followed by a cramp like feeling in my hands and feet, both sides. I have added a long list of the problems I have had below and would just really like to have an opinion if this could be MS or something else, from what I have read it wouldnt be the normal way it presents but then im not sure what esle it could be, my gp has referred me back to neurology (first appointment was with a junior and she sent me to infectious diseases due to a trip to the philipines) I am now waiting to go back hopefully for a scan. Apologies for the long post....Im getting desperate for help and currently just playing a waiting game.

Your symptoms are very similar to my own. Have you had your thyroid and vit b12 levels checked? Check out symptoms of thyroid and b12 deficiency. Good luck

Thanks for your responses.turns out I had dengue and chikungunya virus...nasty things. Guessing what's happening is some sort of post viral syndrome, pretty horrible to be honest but Obvs nice to find out what started this mess.
