Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

After reading the details provided by you , In my opinion you are suffering from deficiency of vitamin B12 ,since you have tingling all over. Other possibility could be peripheral neuropathy. I suggest you get Blood test for Vit B 12 , Electromyogram studies and start a combination of pregabalin and methycobalamine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
