What Causes Heaviness And Tingling On Left Side Of The Body?

I have been having heaviness and tingling especially on my left side of my side. Have seen a neurologist, but he could not find anything. It has been happening for the past 10 years. sometimes, when it is severe, I feel like I am going to get a stroke. I have visited the emergency room several times out caution, but nothing happens. What do you think is my condition? Thanks.

Neurologist,  's  Response
Hi,

If you have been thoroughly checked by a neurologist and had all appropriate labs and imaging studies performed without anything significant showing up then, conditions of stress, anxiety, and other psychological distresses should be considered.

Once again, I am not privy to all the workup that may have been done by the neurologist or ER but in my experience when workups and examinations yield nothing specific with your symptoms then, I am very confident that the patient is NOT suffering from strokes, aneurysms, or tumors.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dariush Saghafi, Neurologist
