How To Treat Tingling In Legs,buttocks,trouble Sleeping And Exhaustion?
hope you can help me.My husband has been ill for 4 months now. Tingling in legs ,buttocks ,trouble sleeping and exhaustion. His doctor is treating him for anxiety. We both feel this is not the case and now after months of trying several different tablets he now has anxiety. We have asked his Gp For a referral to go private although his doctor has refused and now we don t know what to do. mY husband has had counselling which did not seem to work and his Gp has said this will take some time for medicines to work Please can you give us advice.

Hi,
A prolonged illness hampers illness psychologically as well as physically.
You should try to improve his physical weakness as well.
Lac of appetite/in digestion,vitamin deficiency, anemia, calcium deficiency can give rise to his symptoms.
Please take him to a physician, get him examined /investigated to find the cause.
Good nutrition with high protein diet ,light exercise,Vitamin B complex,iron ,calcium,vitamin D should be given to him.
Sufficient rest with moderate exercises would boost his energy.
A positive approach with use of anxiolytic drugs as per doctor's advice should be continued. All these things with your love & support will improve him to normal.
Thanks
