Why Would I Be Referred To A Neurologist For Asthma?

Why would I be referred to a neurologist for asthma? I have had reactions to singular, advair, & symbicort that are all the left arm going numb and tingly. With singular also tightness in chest, neck, & shoulders as well as indigestion, & stomach pain. With advair also emotional. With singular emotional as well. It took about 5 to 10 minutes for symptoms to start with taking advar and symbicort. It took 9 to 11 days for symptoms to start with singular.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
As you have got all symptoms of pinched nerve pressure like numbness and tingling of left arm, tightness in the chest, neck and shoulder.
This might be due to degenerative changes in your cervical vertebrae and pinching your nerve.
This might be the reason to refer you to Neurologist.
Ok and take care.
