Suggest Treatment For Tingling Sensation And Numbness In Body

what is the cause of familia nervosa, which seems to worsen with age in my case. also, am not diabetic but have numbness, tingling, pain, and a little loss of balance on left side. trouble holding head totally upright -- must hold it to the right a bit or I shake even more. Please do not answer if you need money; I honestly don t have enough at this point. Thank you very much :) was told I have retinopathy, which could mean many things. Always have trouble with right eye (occasional pain, dryness, blurring)

Hello,

It is good to know that you are not diabetic. However, numbness and tingling sensation that you are experiencing is indicative of developing peripheral artery disease or peripheral neuropathy. Take food rich in vitamin B6, B12, vitamin E or its supplements. Take care of your vitals. Your blood pressure, blood glucose level & body electrolyte level should be normal.

Maintain healthy weight, stay well hydrated. Co ordination problems can be due to dehydration, low blood glucose or low BP. Stay well fed, take home made food. For retinopathy get examined and treated by an eye specialist. For numbness & tingling get clinically examined by a neurologist and get all Nerve Conduction tests, Imaging tests and nerve biopsy done. Get treated at the earliest.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
