Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

His symptoms could be related to peripheral neuropathy or a pinched nerve. For this reason, I recommend performing nerve conduction studies and consulting with a neurologist. Starting pregabalin or gabapentin would help improve his situation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
