Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe numbness all over the body. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like peripheral neuropathy , vitamin B12 deficiency , anxiety disorder , medication reaction or side-effect , panic attack , hyperhidrosis , diabetic neuropathy or stroke. I would suggest you to consult general practitioner for proper examination . Doctor may order certain test like blood test , ECG and check vitals to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe vitamin supplement . For now keep yourself relax , take proper rest , drink plenty of water and do mind relaxing exercises like meditation . Doctor may also refer you to cardiologist in condition like stroke . If your currently taking any medicine then tell doctor about this medicine.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
