Pins And Needle Feeling And Pain In Legs,feet,stomach,weakness,losing Balance,blurry Vision,tired,pains In Hip,degenerative Knees
Hi, I was wondering if you could help me. I have been experiencing strange things. I get pins and needles in my legs, feet and stomach as well as pain with this. My lega go weak and I keep loosing my balance. Last week I lost feeling in my right foot upto my ankle which lasted a few hours. I have also started to recently get blurry vision . I am always tired in the afternoon, even just walking my dogs my legs ache and I end up falling asleep when I get home. I have pains also in my hips. I have been diagnosed weigh degenartive knees last year but feel these other symptoms are not related to that. I am a 26 year old female and use to be very active until all this became too much. I hope you can help. Thank you, Kayleigh Rowland
From your description you might want to get your Thyroid status checked that is T3,T4,TSH with your electrolytes.Usually the symptoms that you mentioned are associated with a low level of thyroxine (hypothyroidism).The thyroid hormone is one of your main metabolic hormones and a decrease below normal will cause you to feel dizzy and feel lethargic.If your thyroid status is normal I suggest getting a neurological evaluation done
