What Causes Severe Fatigue Along With Pressure In The Head And Face?

For about 3 to 4 months now I have been having these little episodes. They aren t debilitating so I haven t been to the doctor about it. But now it seems they are becoming more frequent and the exhaustion lasts longer. I feel this pressure in my head and face (sometimes tingly feeling in face), when I feel this I know that I am about to have issues walking at a regular gate because my legs feel weak and heavy. My arms feel heavy as well. All this is accompanied by dizziness and foggy thinking and blurry vision. When this passes, I am exhausted. I have just had blood work done and according to my physician, I am healthy. No blood pressure issues or blood sugar issues. Should I be concerned or is this something that will pass?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Since you are having a feeling of tingling in the face, it indicates nerve dysfunction or nerve disorder, MS, anxiety, allergic reaction. If this sensation is accompanied by numbness or weakness of the hands & feet it is indicative of stroke or some developing tumor.

Severe fatigue occurs in Peripheral Neuropathy, MS, TIA, Fibromyalgia. Get examined in the ER & get all tests done, like CBC, Nerve Conduction tests, Nerve Biopsy, USG, etc.

Avoid alcohol, smoking or drugs. Take vitamin B6, B12 along with folic acid & minerals. Get treated at the earliest.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
