Hello everyone,
Thanks in advance for reading and maybe even responding. I bet you guys get a lot of anxiety-ridden pests that want some reassurance. And yeah, I suppose I'm one of them.
Over the past month I've been getting some weird symptoms. It began with my left arm and my left leg going numb at work. I readjusted my position and didn't think about it again. A few weeks later I woke up to my left leg numb, again I readjusted and didn't think about it. Well, a few nights later I woke up, used the restroom, and realized later that my left arm, leg, and lips were numb. It freaked me out so I made an appt. My doctor thought I maybe had some carpal tunnel and anxiety mostly. At the appt my BP was high - it never has been before. Since this all started I've gotten twitches all over. It began with my eye (which happens at work often when I deal with stupid people) and has since happened all over - pretty randomly. Now a few days ago my right leg has felt tingly and like it has an "inner tremor". Like it's shaking, but no one can see it. I have been waking up each night with my calves feeling like I've got bricks attached to them. They ache, but not painfully - if that makes sense. This inner tremor has been driving me crazy.
I've been trying to get my diet under control, but before this I've had a lot of dizzy spells and some lightheadedness - at work especially. I think my dr thinks I'm crazy.
