Question: I took a tour in Israel from Februay 11th through February 21st. A lot of people on the tour came down with bad colds or broncatis. I picked it up around the 19th and came home with it. I went to an Urgent Care facility where they diagnosed it as Broncatis. I was given a Z-Pack (antibiotic) and a broncial inhaler, along with some pills for cough. I have not used them for two weeks.
Since my return home, I have had tingling and cold hands/feet during the night and less during the day. Most every night, my left arm is totally numb, although I am careful to note that I did not sleep on it (most times). During the day, most of these symptoms reside except I keep tingling feeling on the tips of my fingers.
In addition, during this same timeframe, I have a very difficult time falling asleep, where in the past, this has never been a problem. I go to bed at 10pm and get up at 6pm. However, I do not fall asleep until around 2am and still get up at 6am.
Also, I still have a runny nose and cough up clear flem, although nothing near as bad as it was when I first came home from the trip.
Finally, I am still dizzy (a feeling of sudden loss of balance). This happens 2-3 times during the day. I thought it was associated with weening off of Xanax, but that was finished XXXXXXX 2, 2017.
I know this is alot of symptoms, and maybe or may be not related. However, the numbness/tingling/cold in the hands and feet are the most concerning. The most unpleasant is the inability to get to sleep.
