I have numbness in my toes and legs and occassional numbness in my fingertips. The left side of my face now feels a little heavy. I have had a brain and cervical MRI done last few but the lesions that were showing up were only in my spine for which i have been put on stereoids and immunoglobulin. Please help.

Hello,
It may be due to nerve compression at cervical spine and lumbar levels.
For further assessment you may require MRI neck and back region, nerve conduction studies after spine surgeon consultation.
Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.
You may require tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.
Do regular physical therapy
Hope I have answered your query..
Let me know if I can assist you further.
