Numbness

New postby chris on Thu Feb 05, 2009 10:28 am

Hello, i wondered if someone may have an idea of what problem i could have.

Im a 30 year old male..non smooker..For the last 5 years , i have been surrering with loss of in my arms,but mostly legs, which is getting worse slowly which is starting to scare me..

The symptoms has i said is mostly in my legs, they go numb regularly,and muscle tics sometimes..

The main thing i have noticed is that the numbness seems to come on after i used my legs,like walking etc,for even a short distance..
.then if i sit down for awhile the numness seems to gradualy go,but may take up to a hour.

They also go cold alot of the time...

When i go to bed my symptoms feel at there worse, but first thing in the morning, im completely symptom free.
Untill i stast to walk again, the other thing i have noticed is my symptoms seem to go if i get in a warm shower..

Iknow i have been under alot of stress, , could this really be stress.?.

Tests i have had done, are loads of blood work, b12,magnesium,etc, thyroid,anemia,liver,kidney tests,
Brain mri,spine mri, but all clear,

I did have a microscopy exam done with my blood acouple of weeks ago..
And said my T cells are active, and blood plasma is very active with lymhocytes..
ALSO fibronectin was low

But did not say what could be causing this..

Can someone please help..

Thankyou
