Pins / Needles - Numbness And Tingling In Left Leg

I have numbness in my left upper leg once a week, to the point where I cant feel anything when I touch the skin on my leg. I also have pins and needles in the same leg. I don't have any pain. I also have a slight case of scoliosis. Its not visible but it might be a contribution to the numbness in my leg?

Myomectomy :: Pins And Needles Pain

Ten days ago I had a robotic laparoscopic myomectomy to remove four large fibroids from my uterus. The surgery went great, and I've been recovering at home and have been waited on hand and foot by my husband a bit less each day.

The only problem I'm having is occasionally in one specific spot I'm experiencing a pins and needles type of pain - sometime like shards of glass - in my abdomen. Yesterday I thought it was the result of overdoing it so I rested yesterday and still woke up in pain. My doctor is an hour and a half away (closest one I could find who does the Da Vinci robot!) so I'd hate to schlep myself all the way there if I don't need to. Anyone have any insight about this kind of pain following surgery?

Depression :: Venlafaxine - Pins And Needles

I've just taken my second tablet of the day about 20 mins ago and I'm having serious side effects. I've been on them since Thursday and have had a few issues with shaking, palpitations, insomnia and some mega weird dreams but nothing I couldn't cope with. in fact nothing I didn't have in one degree or another before.

Tonight I'm in serious pain with my chest. My heart feels like it's breaking out and breathing is hard. I'm light headed and dizzy when sitting but when I lay down my head starts pounding as if all the blood is being pumped in there. 

My legs feel numb and everything below the knee has pins and needles.

Clarithromycin - Weakness In Muscles, Pins And Needles

I have been taking this medication for nearly 4 weeks , the first 2 weeks with prednisolone as a treatment for nasal polyps. I am spaced out most of the time , have had weakness in my muscles, pins and needles and numbness in my fingers. My stomach was painful so I have taken omeprazole for that which eased that pain altogether. Clarithromycin also have me insomnia and mood changes. They made my skin greasy,eventually spotty, and I have headaches and think I am sensitive to the light.

I finish them in 3 days time thank the Lord. At times I felt like passing out and unusually for me zonked out at unlikely moments during the day.

Cerebral Palsy :: Exhausted / Fatigue And Gets Pins And Needles

My daughter was born at 32 1/2 weeks and has very mild cerebral palsy, she is now 17 and experiencing days when she can't get out of bed. She is just exhausted and gets pins and needles. The doctor suggested it could be ME but I wondered if its a result of her Cerebral Palsy. Every time she does something that requires more mental or physical input than normal she is then wiped out for 2 days. Her CP has never really affected her, she wore Piedro boots as a child but recent years has had a "normal" life. Would really appreciate some input, she is due to have an MRI next week.

Gabapentin Tolerance? Pins Needles Sensations Are Back

I have been taking 1800mg of Gabapentin (600 3 times daily) for less than a year now to help with my nerve pain. It was working well however in the last few weeks, I have noticed that shooting pains and the pins needles sensations have started to return.  Is it possible I've built up a tolerance to gabapentin?  I wanted to check in here first before going to my Dr to see if anyone else had had the same experience.

Anxiety :: Numbness In Fingertips, Shaky Body, Pins And Needles

I've had anxiety for years and most of my family suffers from it. Recently I've been having pins and needles, burning feeling in my hands or feeling of numbness in my fingertips. When I wake up in the morning I feel very shaky inside and today I've felt my legs shaking throughout the day and feeling weak. I'm feeling so overwhelmed by it and convincing myself  I have MS. It's literally preoccupies my mind throughout the day and I feel like I'm driving myself crazy checking for symptoms. I've been seeing therapist for years and I've been fine for years but for some reason it hit me hard again beginning of this year. Does anyone have similar symptoms?

Lansoprazole :: 4 Years Use - Severe Lower Back Pain, Pins And Needles

I have been using Lansoprazole for nearly 4 years, I am on 30mg daily, it works great, and I rarely get heartburn these days.

However I have for the past year been experiencing severe lower back pain, pins and needles, strong headaches and more recently dry mouth and dizzy blurred vision.

I stopped taking the Lansoprazole for couple of days, to see if side effects would go away, but the heartburn came back with a vengeance.

So I am having to choose between which is more unbearable, back pain etc. or the heartburn.

I have chosen at the moment to go back on lansoprazole, but if anyone knows of an alternative that works as well, but with no side effects, let me know.

Heel Pain :: MRI - Minimal Joint Effusion Is Seen Tibiotalar Joint

Hi Experts,

I have been into long distance running since long. Lately I started suffering from severe heel pain for which I had an MRI which says:

1. Minimal joint effusion is seen tibiotalar joint anterior and posterior recesses.

2. Soft tissue edema is seen in kager fat and anterior of ankle.

3. Minimal insignificant fluid in subtalar joint and intertarsal joints.

Its been two months I have not been running and I am feeling equal pain all the time. Pressing heel by thumb gives me worst pain. I can't move barefoot anymore. Orthotics insoles provide relief.

I have been dipping my legs in ice water and not running since 2 months but no relief at all.

I am 31 year old male, 5'11" and 78 kg.

Lipitor Better Than Simvastatin?

I’ve been on simvastatin 60 mg for six months now and so far it seems that it only managed to bring my cholesterol number by only 3 points. My cardiologist started me on this after a minor heart attack, so I can’t just quit taking it, but given that I’ve changed my diet dramatically and I’m trying to be more physically active I feel like I should be getting at least somewhat better results.

Besides, simvastatin seems to be giving me very frequent headaches, so I did a bit of research and it seems like Lipitor is way more effective than simvastatin. If anyone has experience with these meds, would you recommend switching to Lipitor?
