What Causes Tingling Sensation On Limbs?

default
Posted on Tue, 7 Oct 2014
Question: Hi, I'm a 39 year old mom of 5 small kids. I've had tingling in all my limbs for several weeks, also very tired and achy joints. Shortness of breath at time, my bloodwork appears normal for thyroid, albeit elevated b12 and serum glucose at 100, slight elevation. Not sure what to do next. New to a city and don't have a really god doc yet. I'm 1 year postpartum with the last little one.

Brief Answer:
Need further investigation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for using Healthcare Magic. Tingling in all your limbs may indicate a neurological condition. Therefore, I suggest you see a neurologist. You may need your slightly elevated blood sugar further investigated. An MRI of your spine may help or nerve conduction studies.
I hope this is if help. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
