What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Hand And Muscle Fatigue?

Hi. Back in September, I started having a bit of tingling in my right hand and right foot along with muscle fatigue. The hand got better, but I still, at times, have a strange sensation in my foot. Not tingling, per se. I met with a neurologist who said it would get better over time. I had an MRI done that was clean. I recently got back from Mexico where I wound up getting travelers diarreah toward the end of our trip. Immediately upon arriving home, I got a cold sore (I get them at least once a year) and felt pretty horrible for about a week. Very run down. The muscle fatigue and off feeling has come back and been back for about 3-4 weeks. Muscle fasiculations in my calves, right eye twitching....just feeling unwell. Does this warrant another trip to the neuro, GP, wait and see? I m also visiting a gastro due to some intestinal discomfort. I believe it s Gastritis along with reflux as I ve been having symptoms. I m wondering if stomach issues can cause vitamin deficiencies and maybe this is where the muscle fatigue and fasiculations are coming into play.

Hello,

As per my surgical experience, the tingling leg, muscle fascicle and eye twitch indicate underlying viral infection (as Campylobacter Jejuni or else) as there is history of recent traveler`s diarrhea episode. Kindly discuss the issue with your treating physician for evaluation with necessary tests for the Campylobacter and get treated accordingly.

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

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
