Trigeminal neuralgia, trigeminal neuropathy and cluster headaches
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi. I was diagnosed with TN (atypical) in 2014. Since then I have developed numbness, pins and needles, and heaviness/squeezing pains in my fingers, toes, arm and leg. All symptoms are on my left side only like my TN pain. Does anyone share my story or clarify if these are MS symptoms please?
Thank you.

I have just started to feel some of these myself.
Not confirmed but I understand it is more than likely Peripheral Neuropathy.
Mine started after a series of chemo sessions. During the hemo I had the tingly fingers but a dose of hot water soon sorted them.
Not now though, numb type feeling in the hands, oins and needles type feeling and can't do much with small things now as far as grasping them or picking them up.
Not anywhere else but the hands but there is plenty of time (I hope) for that.
Off to the GP as there are blood and other tests they can do to confirm or otherwise these conditions.
Forum diagnosis is probably and bad as self diagnosis but it gives you somewhere to start.
Good Luck

I hope these forums help shed light on similar cases and natural remedies. I find consultants want to stick you on the meds too quickly.
I have had 6 months in remission without meds, against my consultant's recommendations. However I have started to experience the return of pain again and I am willing to try anything before going back on the meds.
I hope your symptoms don't get any worse and the blood tests get to the bottom of your problem.
Good luck.

I am also waiting for a contrast MRI as like you all the others came back negative. Have you had one?
