I have no idea what it is, but it sounds like it came on real fast, so there has to be some sort of trigger. Good that you went to a Neurologist, and hopefully you will have some answers tomorrow. Sure hope she starts feeling better. Does sound like something related to nerve endings or such.

I have no ideas as to what could be the issue with your daughter. Sometimes something simple like growing, or hormone changes with her age could cause weird symptoms like that, mysteriously come and then mysteriously go away. I pray her blood work comes back normal though. Saying a prayer for you and your DD. (((HUGS)))

Is it just numbness or is it also tingling or weakness? Has she been sick with flu or such lately? Hope she feels well soon!

You guys are great!! Thank you.

I was diagnosed with a B12 Deficiency two years ago. I get monthly injections. Numbness/Tingling are definitely syptoms. Is she getting migranes? Alot of the symptons are ones you described - if her levels are very low. I had a scare earlier this year my left and right foot were tingling for days and it wouldn't go away (sort of like a pins and needles feeling) - very scary! Turns out my levels were extrememly low - took a few months of injections until I felt normal again. Definitely have her tested for a b12 deficiency. Here is some information on it: Vitamin B12 Deficiency Feel free to PM me with any questions.

thoughts and prayers your way. Have they checked for a herniated disc or bulging disc? Just a thought.

Sammy Mommy · 06-02-2011, 02:08 PM

You and your daughter are in my thoughts and prayers.

Praying for answers and treatment for your daughter...i know the waiting must be unbearable as a mother...hugs to you and prayers for strength!!

jadabug · 06-02-2011, 03:27 PM

Oh my, I am just now seeing this!! I will pray for you DD and that the drs can give you a clue as to what this is. You have to be scared out of your mind. I pray it is just a vitamin deficiency.

Lil Sis · 06-02-2011, 03:41 PM

I know you are scared... I would be too. Have faith, we are all praying for your daughter!

jmdt · 06-02-2011, 06:01 PM

So far it's easier to say what is not numb. Her forehead, her stomach, her shins, her right hand and three fingers on her left hand. She says it's not really numb it is just weird feeling. I am just trying to keep myself busy until tomorrow when we get the blood results. I do know they are checking the b-12. So we will see. I pray it is something easily cureable. I will let you guys know as soon as the doctor calls me. Thanks again for all your prayers.

shodanusmc · 06-02-2011, 06:17 PM

Hopefully tomorrow there will be some answers, and relief for both of you.

Patti · 06-02-2011, 07:13 PM

I hope you get some answers tomorrow and it is something easily treated.

BonBon · 06-03-2011, 03:51 AM

Praying your daughter finds answers and relief today.
