Have Fasciculations, Tingling And Numbness Feeling In Neck And Feet. Treatment?

For the past few weeks I have been troubled by fasiculations (waiting for an EMG study). I have increasing feeling of a being zapped sensation with tingling and numbess that I suspect comes from bone spurs located at C5 C6 - moving my neck at all brings this on as does moving my eyes left or right. This odd feeling starts in my neck and in a second can zap down to my feet . This is getting worse, while the fasiculations have quieted down somewhat. Any ideas?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Your symptoms are likely to be due to benign causes like electrolyte imbalance or vitamin B12 deficiency. Few blood tests will help in detecting the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
