Question : In the last 6 maths I have been fatigued, my arms and hands go numb just sitting. My legs swell a lot. I've had pain in my legs and burning pain in my hips. I have been going to the bathroom 4 plus times a night. I've been having more headaches than normal. NF, MS, and kidney disease runs on my side of the family. Could I have one of these?

Dear Madam,

Thanks you for posting your query

Looking into your symptoms there is a strong possibility of having the diseases you have mentioned. You need evaluation for the same. If you have any tests results related to your conditions, please send those reports to me so that I can help you out. There is an option to upload reports on this page. If you don't have them, let me know and I will suggest you how to proceed.

Take care.

My employer does not offer insurance. So, with that said I have put off going to Dr due to the high cost. I am a security officer and there is a significant amount of walking. I've done this for 5 yrs with no issues. Do you know the general cost for the testing I will need?
