Viral syndrome/tingling

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hello,

A few weeks ago, I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with costochondritis. Several days after that, I began to have tingling/numbness in my hands and feet, as well as arm soreness. I then had a numbness in the left side of my face that has transitioned to muscle soreness in my jaw and neck. Went to the doctor and had blood drawn, and all results were normal except for a high neutrophil count which my doctor attributed to some sort of virus. This is what my doctor believes is causing all my symptoms, especially because I suffered from a very bad cold a few weeks before these symptoms surfaced and am now likely battling a sinus infection too. I've begun to have soreness in my legs that include muscle spasms as well as some burning pain. Is it really just a virus that is causing all of these problems? I've been battling this for almost a month and was previously a healthy, young adult who's now just wanting to get back to a sense of normalcy. Could it be a neurological disorder instead? 

Thanks, 

Sara
