Hello!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
Your symptoms seem to be related to peripheral neuropathy. For this reason, I recommend consulting with a neurologist for a physical exam and performing a nerve conduction study (electroneurography) to investigate for possible neuropathy.
I would also recommend performing some other blood lab tests :
- complete blood count
- vitamin D and vitamin B12 levels
- PCR, sedimentation rate for inflammation
- thyroid hormone levels, etc..
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes,Dr. Aida
