What Does My MRI Scan Report Indicate?

default
Posted on Wed, 27 Dec 2017
Question: I have been experiencing numbness on forehead and lips from past fewdays. Along with tingling all over body. I also have mild headache. Also feel photosensitivity in eyes when in office. Also feel numbness in legs, arms and feet some times. I met a neurologist and showed him MRI report. MRI was clean . so he said all this could be due to anxiety. But I feel these are real physical symptoms not due to anxiety as I don't feel tense. I was b 2 deficient. My level was 193 pg/ml last month took 4 methylcobalamin shots it went now up to 2000 pg/ml. These symptoms keep on increasing. Can this be sideeffects of methylcobalamin ?
