Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being in follow-up and providing further details.
Spine issues 2 years back is not the likely causing these symptoms.
Certain things to stress upon are-
1)Prilosec can on rare occasion,cause neuropathic symptoms.Since you have been on chronic use,I would suggest you to please keep it on hold for now,and observe for improvement.
2)Stop alcohol intake and start taking vitamins and anti-oxidants supplementation,and observe for the change.Chronic alcohol intake can result in such symptoms.
3)Start doing regular mental relaxation exercises like meditation.It should bring down your symptoms.
If your symptoms persist even on following the above measures for 3-4 weeks,then I would like you to get yourself physically examined by a physician.
Hope that I have answered your query.If you have some further questions,I shall be glad to have you in follow-up else please close the thread,rate it and write a review.
