General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Firstly, I do not agree more on doing these blood tests. When you complain like so symptoms, you should have a consultation of a neurologist which has to do some clinical examination like strength of muscle, muscles tone, reflexes and so. And these examinations should be done for both the upper and lower limbs simultaneously. When we have these symptoms in addition to the findings which may be positive, I hope nothing is present, then the neurologist should have to ask for an x-ray and may be or not an MRI imaging for both the cervical and lumbar spine and evaluate if there is a lesion like spondylosis or other. My best wishes.
