What Causes Numbness And Tingling Sensation On Left Side Of Body?
Question: i have been having a weird uncomfortable pulsing sensation on the lower left abdomin for the last few months. last night it kicked in again even stronger after i got home from the grocery store because of all the smells and chemicals at the store. I was sleeping on my stomach and woke up because i almost felt out of breath/ loss of oxygen and i noticed my heart rate was fast. it feels like it is connected to the left side and front of my neck/throat and travels down to my stomach on left side. I feel numbness, tingling on left side of body starting from the top of my head all the way down my foot. I also have nausea and feel like i have to vomit if it is real bad. When I am exposed to chemicals, air conditioner coolant, bpa's, emf, and emr's it seems to aggravate it and make it start up. Do you have any suggestions? is this serious? what type of doctor should i see? Any holistic approaches to make it better? I have been concerned about this for some time. I used to be healthy until i was exposed to some mold a few months ago, developing multiple chemical sensitivities to cleaning products i never used to be sensitive to. Do you think being sensitive to the cleaning products might have done some damage? I was a house cleaner. not anymore. My life has turned upside down. please help give me some good advice. thanks!
