Blurred Vision Followed With Numbness In Little Finger Or Toe That Extends Upwards With Spells Of Confusion, Slurred Speech. Cause?
I have suffered for countless years with something that no one can seem to figure out. First it starts off as tunnel/ blurred vision then moving into numbness that either starts in my pinky finger or pinky toe moving upwards or downwards from there. Sometimes with these spells I experience inability to talk and confusion.
