Hi. Suzanne. I am having weird neurological symptoms from an allergic reaction to my medication and am going through each tablet stopping and starting them under supervision. However Iā€™m having generalised pins and needles and numbness. I think you should seek medical advice rather than try and sort it out on your own. It could be any number of things so best get it checked out. Take care. Hope itā€™s sorted soon. Itā€™s weird isnā€™t it! Zena

That does sound strange. Even more reason to seek medical help. As Michael says it could be so many potential causes. Even if it calms down I still think you should get advice. I know none of us like going to the doctors but sometimes itā€™s essential!! Enjoy your holiday come home and check in with Doc. Or seek advice there if you need to. The benefit I have at the moment is I canā€™t feel my feet which although scary and strange neither can I feel my in growing toe nails!! Always a silver lining!! Take care. Zena x

You need to seek medical advice as otherwise some conditions could result in partial loss of vision or worse. A friend's father had permanent blurred vision after ignoring an eye infection resulting in scarring of the corneas.

If it is more than 24/48 hours to your return you should consult a local doctor!

Hi Zena, I had a weird incident on Wednesday where I felt numbing in my face and arms. I was scared it was some kind of stroke and was kept i hospital overnight but then all clear and diagnosed as stress. I have since asked my own GP if it could be med side effects. Nothing is clear so I'm now monitor any symptoms and keeping notes for reference.. I also have issues with my feet feeling tight and pins and needles. I've never liked taking pills as I have always been wary of them. Now if course I have no option and taking loads each day. Hope everything gets resolved for us all soon.

You need to dial 111 for advice. There are too many potential causes from minor to serious.
