Daughter, Suffering From Fever, Numbness In Hands, Legs, Heavy Arms, Hands Curling Inward. Treatment?
I have a daughter who has not felt good today. We took her to the doctor but he did not give her an antibiotic. We thought she had a sinus infection. She is running a fever and is having some numbness that is radiating in her hands and her legs and arms feel heavy. She has labored breathing at times. Is there a strange virus that could cause these weird and unusual symptoms. Some times her hands curl inward. She is 21 years old.

The labored breathing,numbness,and curling hands cannot be explained by sinusitis.

prbably there are multiple problems.meningitis,neuropathy,fits, to be ruled out
