Hi, the other day my whole leg went completely numb and i fell over, no warning like a pins and needles thingy. Then this morning i woke up again no dead leg feeling or pins and needles and i was falling every where. My balance seemed to have gone on one side and the whole of one leg seemed to feel wet yet every time i felt it it was dry. Hours later and it was still the same and i was having to pick my foot up and put it down purposely, , for if i didn t the foot/leg would stumble, no pain involved but feeling dizzy, and confused, and numb especially down one side.
Hello, If these symptoms occurred suddenly then you should be cautious because this can be due to:- Stroke-Sudden compression of nerve/s in your back as in case of disc prolapse-Diabetes- High blood pressure-Nerve injury or compression due to trauma Other unlikely reasons in your case may be due to:- Deficiency of vitamin B12- Naturopathies In your case I will advise you to not wait and have a consultation from your neurologist. He may advise you an MRI scan and some blood investigations to rule out the cause behind your symptoms. Till then, I will advise you to take rest and continue medicine (If you are taking for high blood pressure or diabetes). Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
