Hi,

Welcome to HealthCareMagic.com

I am Dr.Bruno Mascarenhas. I have read your question with care and understand your concerns. Let me try to help you

You have listed the following complaints which have started over a period of 6 months
1. Loss of Sensation
2. Tingling in the hands and feet
3. Started with feet in pain
4. Face also involved
5. Left Side Only
6. No Problems in Swallowing
7. Tongue in Midline
8. Left Cheek also involved

The Doctor has verified the sensory impairment

Now you have also visual disturbances
And felt woozy

In presence of the above complaints, a problem in the CranioVertebral Junction has to be ruled out.

I would suggest you to kindly consult a Neurosurgeon

You may need the following investigations
1. MRI Brain
2. MRI CV Jn
3. X Ray CV Jn

Hope you found the answer helpful.

If you need any clarification / have doubts / have additional questions / have follow up questions, then please do not hesitate in asking again. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.
