Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello. Yesterday, my son told, who is 29, told us that he was having tingling and a numbing sensation on one side of his body. He said this has been happening about once a week for about 5 weeks. We took him to the ER and they did a CT scan. It came back negative, which was a relief, but he is still having some residual tingling and fatigue today. The ER doctor said to see a neurologist in his home town, which is about an hour and a half away from the ER we took him to. He went home last night, called to try to see a neurologist today, but they aren't taking new patients until August 1. Do you think it is advisable to wait that long?
