What Causes Numbness On The Left Side Of The Face?
I have numbness on left side of face and fingers that comes and goes. No pain. This started when I returned home from Disney world. Could there be some nerve trauma from a couple of the wild rides? I did feel a bit beat up! Sometimes it comes on we I sense a bowel movement coming.
Your symptoms could be related to anxiety. TIA (transient ischemic attacks) ore seizures can not be excluded either. I would like to know your age and past medical history. Do you suffer from high blood pressure or diabetes? What about the thyroid gland?
Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your GP for a physical exam and some tests: - a brain MRI - an EEG - thyroid hormone levels - fasting glucose -complete blood count - blood electrolytes - a resting ECG - Doppler ultrasound of the cervical arteries.
Hope you will find this answer helpful! Kind regards, Dr. Aida
