My wife has been experiencing random numbness and tingling in her arms and legs the last few months. She received an MRI on her neck and they showed slight deterioration of disks in the C5-C7 range, however after being referred to a neurosurgeon, they determined nothing seemed abnormal to cause this. Any ideas of what could be going on?

My wife is experiencing the same. Along with random dizziness. Had an mri of her brain done and nuerologist cleared it. She’s been to multiple different doctors and none of them can find anything wrong. But she’s having pains and numbness for some reason. It’s making her a little crazy.

Out of curiosity, did she get a covid vaccine?

She did get the vaccine last September, the Pfizer. I don’t know if she experienced these symptoms before. She hasn’t been experiencing the dizziness either, however she has with the headaches

Can you legit call it peripheral neuropathy?

I took cipro for an infection years ago and had PN everywhere for months. Magnesium Glycinate and tons of myofascial release helped significantly.

Mine also got Pfizer. She’s also been having random headaches she’s never had before. Her sister also got pfizer and has been having immune problems she never had before that’s lead to random hive outbreaks and things.

It’s worrisome. No doctor yet can find anything wrong but obviously something is going on. I’ll update here if we find something.

I hope it’s nothing to do with the vaccine! I just want it to be something short term that can be fixed. I’m afraid of something like MS or Fibromyalgia that she would have to deal with for the rest of her life. She’s only 26

Check out “Why We Hurt” by Adrian Louw

He’s at the forefront of pain science research. It may not be the exact answer you are looking but can give insight into how and why we perceive stimuli as pain even when we know that it shouldn’t be a painful thing

Magnesium Glycinate, Vitamin C and Alpha Lipoic Acid.

I’ve had 2 lower back surgeries in the last 7 years and I’m under 35. Massive nerve pain, numbness and tingling.

Occasional Advils as anti inflammatory and those 3 supplements above have reduced pain and tingling tremendously.

That was my first thought as well, but I'm sure the docs ran a chemistry panel.
