Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been experiencing a really weird feeling which is very hard to explain. I keep getting sometimes slight numbness in either arm or either leg, slight shortness of breathing, twitches of very slight pain feeling as if it comes from my veins/bloodstream, I wouldn t call it pain but I can t describe it in any other way, headaches, I find it s usually on one side of the body but that changes, sometimes both sides, I would go to a GP but I don t think they would be able to help me because I can t really explain very well what it is. I keep getting paranoid that is may be early signs of stroke or heart attack but I know the chances of that are very slim especially as I am only 16 and don t have any obvious health problems. Thanks

Hello Thanks for posting I have gone through your suffering and understand your concern.These symptoms could well be due to defciency of vitamin B12 or thyroid hormone disturbance. My advise would be getting blood test done like complete blood count,vitamin B12 and D level,Thyroid hormone estimation (T3,T4,TSH). Hope this helps. Take care
