It started in my arm, pain and tingliness all the way to my fingertips. I have also experienced tingliness in my face and pain in my bones (on left side of body). I've gone to the doctor and my doctor ordered 3 MRIs, one of the brain. Unfortunately my insurance sucks and they denied all 3 MRIs. We have repealed their denial and hope I am able to get a scan soon. Report / Delete 2 Reply
nicola_93837 MpeePosted 8 years ago Google fibromyalgia. That's what your symptoms sound like to me - and just about everyone else in this thread. I was very fortunate to find a good doctor who has been worth his weight in gold helping me with this. There is no cure, but there are medications that can provide relief.

Just to confirm the symptoms can you mention the type of medicines you are using. Like antibiotics , pain killers or anti depressants. i get some relief with anti depressant called clomfranil. Thanks in advance.

I get flash headaches, blurry vision, face, neck, shoulder, every thing on my left side. My hip and thigh feel like im being stabbed with knives. I have gone thru xrays, blood work, mri, ct scans. All puzzle the doctors. Report / Delete 7 Reply
