What Does Numbness In The Face, Fingertips And Sluggishness In The Legs Indicate?
I have had numbness in my face and fingertips down to sluggishness in the legs. Also feeling lightheaded since the 13th. Went to ER on the 21st. Tests (MRI, CT SCAN, EKG) say that I am not having a stroke. Blood work shows only excessive high on B12. Went back to primary on Monday the 28th. Did more bloodwork. TSH level abnormal. They want to take it from 200 to 175 mcg. B12 not back yet. What can be causing these symptoms for 3 weeks?
