What Causes Hand And Leg Numbness When Diagnosed With Vitamin D Deficiency?
I am 36 year old woman and have recently gained 30 lbs, it came on very quickly. I am very tired all of the time. My body goes numb very quickly when sitting in any position beside up right, feet on the floor. I also get sharp pains in my hands maybe two or three times a month. Sometimes it will happen everyday for four days in a row. Recently my hands and legs are going numb at night. It wakes me up maybe 5 times a night. I have had several blood test done and the only thing that comes up is I m low in vitamin D. I currently take citalopram for anxiety and depression. I ve considered maybe seeing a different doctor, because my doctor syis I m fine, but I don t feel fine. Please help...thank you
