    Hey guys, glad I find this post, in dire of suggestions.  So yesterday I ended up in the ER because I I was not feel like myself, lately I been feeling like something was wrong with me.  I had a small fracture in my foot and one day the swelling went away and almost immediately I wasn’t feeling well.   Like dizzy fatigue weak etc.  well I looked up the symptoms and then it started.  I felt like I had a possible blood clot, or sickness and then went to thinking I might have cancer etc.   well i have experienced numb face constant aches and no appetite.    At the ER they checked for clots in leg and chest and all clear.   They released me and  instantly felt amazing all night and this morning I felt a lol dizzy and drank some water and then almost instantly. Felt like I couldn’t swallow and then left side of neck and face went a little numb and felt swollen but wasn’t swollen and felt foggy headed ...   It feels numb and I have sensation, no droop or anything.   It lasted 20-30mims and. Kinda broke down and cried and felt better.   It’s hard, like I never had this and now it’s just the worst feeling n the world.   Gonna see doc tomorrow and she wants to do a few more test and she said she is leaning towards anxiety.

      I was on duloxitine for a few years as the said it was nurelgia but the tablets did nothing to make the symptoms any better I’ve recently brought cbd oil from Holland and Barrett’s and on my second day of taking it hoping this will help 🤞🏻

    Been taking Carbamezepine for almost 2 weeks. Thought I felt benefits at the beginning. Maybe wishful thinking. The pain, tingling and numbness are still all there, making life a misery. If so many people are suffering (and I mean suffering) from this, why can't our GPs recognise it. I was advised it was tri neuralgia but medication has done nothing. I'm alarmed that Deborah has had these symptoms for 6 years.

    There's an advert for RediCalm on this webpage. "5 Herbs that Beat Anxiety" Doctors claim.  I've just received these pills.  I'll give them a try and let you know if there is even the slightest difference. Anyone who has these awful, life draining symptoms, I pray for you. This is no life. Like I said in an earlier text, a broken bone, a serious cut, doctors can see these and treat them, no Doctor can feel the tingling, the pain, the numbness, the sensitivity so bad that you can't apply make up. Everything is put down to anxiety. Like when we were growing up, any leg pain was "growing pains".

    Hi everyone

    Not good news for you, I feel absolutely no difference taking RediCalm pills. The tingling is getting worse. When you tell someone you have terrible tingling, they just don't get it. They think it's just a nuisance sensation. How wrong. You are desperate to scratch but there's no feeling because the area is numb, the tingling is downright painful. I feel for every one of you out there going thru' this hell living.

      I found ths earlier about remi 

      While it is not a miracle cure, the clinical results are very encouraging. More than 2 out of 3 study participants felt immediate relief from anxiety within 30 minutes. In addition, over 95% felt relief within 30 days. And none of the participants reported any negative side effects. The results were statistically significant when compared with placebo.†

    Hi Deborah,

    found your message interesting. I guess we all react differently.  However, 95% relief is something to think about. I intend to buy another couple of bottles of RediCalm tomorrow, maybe I need to give it more of a chance. I'll try anything, but it won't be on the USA website, I paid 40 pounds. I didn't realise that I could buy it locally for a fraction of the price.

    I've been diagnosed with anxiety and am currently taking medications for it, but I didn't realize it can cause tingling in the tongue and throat too...

    I recently had an episode where I had a tingly tongue after having yogurt after dinner. I felt panic wash over me thinking I was having an allergic reaction. I had had the same brand of yogurt the day before and eat yogurt often. I have no food allergies, neither does my family. I waited about a week and tried yogurt again. It was fine while I ate it, but I had a tingly throat for hours after. When I got home I took a lorazepam and Benadryl and passed out for a few hours. When I woke up it was fine.

    I wonder now if it's possible this was anxiety? I'm still avoiding yogurt just in case, but it would be great if I could eat it again...

    Hi Bethany and Deborah

    Still taking RediCalm and still absolutely no difference. I don't know....do we need Psychiatric (correct spelling?) help, or what??? Trying everything that has been posted to try to alleviate these symptoms. Dear Doctors, we need you. We are crying out for your help. Please listen to us.
