Tiredness, Numbness In Feet, Hands. Do Suffer From Anxiety. Could This Be The Cause Or Is This Something More Serious?
Hi, I am very tired recently no matter how much sleep i get. I am also noticing that I am thirsty alot and at time i wake up during the night and my mouth is so dry it hurts. I am not noticing that I am going to the bathroom more ofter tho. Finally, I have been experiencing a ball of catarrh in my throat for the last few months that I cant shift and I am finding that I am getting numbness in my feet and hands at times (not very ofter) but not necessarily when ive been leaning on them and cut blood supply. I do suffer from anxiety , could this be the cause or is this something more serious?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The symptoms that you have could be due to anxiety, generalized weakness, Vitamin B 12 deficiency, electrolyte imbalance or a thyroid hormone disorder. A few blood tests will help in detecting the exact cause.

Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
The symptoms that you are having are likely to be related to anxiety or benign causes like electrolyte imbalance, vitamin B 12 deficiency, etc. Most of the times these symptoms can be taken care of by taking electrolyte rich fluids and Methylcobalamin supplements.
Hope this helps you.
