What Causes Cold Flushes On The Face And Scalp?
hi, i went to the ER 2 days ago because of cold sensations on my face and scalp and a slight feeling of numbness on my right cheek. My CT scan was negative and all blood panels were normal. Any idea what night be causing this? I am also now feeling sensations on random parts of my body. It s more of a nuisance at this point but its fairly constant and I worry it may become something more serious. I am a 35 yo female with no prior health issues. I am ttc with my husband and took femara from 7/6-10 for and upcoming IUI but I don t suspect that would cause neurological side effects. I have no other symptoms that would indicate something like Lymes, but I m thinking I should get tested for that. I live in CT so there are ticks around. Would appreciate your feedback!

Hello,
Lyme disease is a possibility . but such cold sensations could point to some neural disease only and you can get it checked by a neurologist . do you have any family history of the same ? Another possibility is vitamin B12 deficiency .
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
