What Causes Weakness In The Legs Along With Sleeping Difficulty?
I have been experiencing since Oct. 2nd or 3rd a feeling of weakness or wobbliness in my legs and arms.Today I was shopping in Walmart (somewhat rushing during lunch hour) after having felt fine this morning (other than some extreme sleepiness on the way to work). I now feel very week, shaky and sleep. I tested my Oxygen level with my phone (not sure of accuracy) and I was at 95%. My bp was between 98 and 102 after having sat for 10 min. (I have been a nurses aid) I was in a high stress and emotional situation with my step daughter on the 1st and 2nd. I have experienced this since then and have also had trouble sleeping and eating. I have no history of heart trouble, diabetes runs on my mother s side, but I have not had any issues as of yet. I am overweight at 256 lbs. and 5 8 . I had my gall bladder removed in Dec 2014 and have noticed that greasy fried foods are bothersome to my system recently more so. I often have acid re-flux due to taking too much ibuprofen during a back injury. I have had about 35 oz of water this morning and 2 cups of coffee. (my norm). I have had my vein removed in my left leg and I often get swelling in my ankles.They are swollen now.
Get your blood sugar checked. Keep your bs and weight under control. Modify your lifestyle and diet. If you are on antihypertensives, get your treatment revised from your doctor because your bp readings are low normal. Reduce your stress level by meditation.
