Pins and Needles

[bubbatetley]

Hi to you all, hope everyone hanging on in there.

For 2 years now I've been having daily pins and needles in my head ,face and legs.

It's the most awful feeling ever. The head tingling is with me 24/7 and I'm finding that when I exercise it gets worse.

My face and legs tingle too.

Tingling in my head seems to move about all and every day. It's unbearable.

Had an MRI and it showed degenerative spondylosis of the neck and severly narrowing the right foreamen.

My legs from my kness to my feet tingle sometimes at the same time so does my head.

I''ve started to get neck pain too.

Any advice greatly Appreciated

Thank you and take care

Hi there,if you have suffered for 2 years and had an MRI showing issues. May I ask what your GP said or prescribed to help you.

Unfortunately no one on here is medically qualified to answer your question.

Hi, GP prescibed anti depressants called Amitriptaline to help with nerve pain {pins and needles} but I'm reluctant to take them. He said it was Arthritus in the neck.

Thank you

Hi, you've asked this several times over the last couple of years and your early vitamin levels were terrible. Have you had further testing for B12 deficiency (as you are hypothyroid you are very likely to get progressive B12 deficiency and your serum level was poor already) or ferritin as iron looked far from optimal. And what is your vit D level like now? Or did you just start supplementing oral B12 - if so, how much and what form? Not to be advised, if you aren't already, as it will make diagnosis much harder. Cheers
