Hi,
Though I cannot predict the exact nature of the disease, I can say that the problems that you have are significant enough to test. The nerve impulses and the blood flow to the limbs is compromised. This can happen with many systemic illness like simple anemia, thyroid, hormonal issues, autoimmune disorders. First you get to a GP in your are who can do basic testing and tretment before appropriate referral.
