PR numbness and tingling feet and hands

Posted , 3 users are following.

I have experienced numbness and tingling in my feet and hands. The numbness and tingling also is occupnaiend by a burning sensation. I developed pityriasis rosea which did not present with a Herald patch. My doctor swears  it’s Pityriais but says the numbness and tingling is not related. I’ve had MRI of the brain and cirvical spine and no signs of MS. This rash burns and is super sensitive. I’m in my 20s and am a healthy male. I’ve had the rash for over a month. Doctors have tested me for everything.

    Please ask for a biopsy as this will tell you if it is PR or not! Always go for a second or third opinion! PR comes with a Herald patch so your condition could be something else!

      Thank you. I’ve gone to the doctor several times. They really don’t care to listen. Said it will go away in a few months and send you out the door. It looks like PR but I’m no convinced. Ty I will make another appointment. Co pay times ten.
