numbness in hands

[Cutiebaby]

So I am taking a very low dose of medication that causes hands to tingle..Yeah that is great, been on the meds forever now, no reason why they would tingle now at only 25mg when it did not cause issue at 100mg day.

Every time I touch any thing I pretty much lose feeling (not tingle) in both of my hands..Happens more frequently when I touch colder objects. They don't change colors, though they get real cold..I know it is not Raynauds..I am assuming that I have peripheral neuropathy, however the root I don't know. Obviously a sensory nerve damage has occured as when I touch steering wheel, kids sippy cup, my comp mouse, etc my hands go numb...This shit sucks..

So now I have to go to Dr and find out what is wrong and of course she wont know so I will have to go to neurologist which will take forever to get an appt with..I wish I knew everything!!!

everytime you use the N-word God takes away feeling from your body.

Only about other people, I confuse the hell out of myself.

maybe try magnesium. i'm no doctor but when i get muscle spasms at night or muscle twitches it gets rid of that. magnesium helps nerve damage. worth a try.

Mg2+ works by binding at Ca2+ binding sites making it less likely for excess Ca2+ to "accidentally bind" causing tropomyosin to move off the actin binding site, yadda yadda yadda.....

It doesn't help nerve damage.

considering I can't even do a physical exam, it would be arrogant and unprofessional to just start blurting crap out. And I still have one year before I get to put any initials behind my name.
