What Could Cause Numbness In Limbs And Head, Also Have Sciatica Pain?

I have sciatica pain from a hip reconstruction I had in 2002. Now I'm experiencing weakness when lifting my arms. FAcial numbess, mostly on left side but feel a little on right. Legs are almost numb from knee down, it does travel up my left leg. Feet numb and tingling too. My head is almost kinda numb and I can't think straight. Dizzy on and off. I feel sick to my stomach. Please help.Thank you, Nancy

Hi,

Welcome to HealthCareMagic.com I am Dr.J.Mariano Anto Bruno Mascarenhas. I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help you.

The history is suggestive of Peripheral Neuropathy
You need to visit a Neurologist and undergo

Clinical Examination
