Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having cramps and needles and pins. It is likely that you may be vitamin and trace elements deficiencies. Vitamin D3 and vitamin B12 levels should be determined. EvionLC,Mecobalamin and calcium are helpful in recovery. If even after vitamin and trace elements supplements it doesn't improve then neurological assessments is required. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. You can also write to me directly on below link:
