I had no idea which topic to post this under so Im posting it under this one.I really need some help
For the past 2 or 3 days i been having a tingling feeling in my leg and I also feels like im losing feeling in my leg.I dont feel paralyzed or anything but it feels like im losing strength in my left leg.It kinda feels like the leg is sleep or something but i have this problem thru most of the day.Im only 23 so I dont think its cuz of old age or anything.
Does anybody know what could be wrong with my leg?If so does anybody have any solutions?Should I go see a doctor?

You may want to see your doctor. It sounds like you may have a pinched nerve or something else going on.

RSD
I know exactly what you are talking about... I have the same exact feelings... but I've had mine since Dec. '08. It didn't start off like that but the past month or so I've been getting those feelings. I've been going to the doctor since January this year. I've had so many tests done; like, 3 MRI's, 5 X-rays, nerve tests, blood test (which I'm still waiting for the results), etc. So far, the the 4 doctors I'm seeing all believe it's RSD (Reflexive Sympathetic Dystrophy), it's Type I of CPRS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome). It affects your nervous system. In addition to all the other test I've been through, I also have more to come; like, a CT scan, a bone scan, a thermogram, and a couple others. I'm determined to get down to the bottom of this. So basically, if just for curiosity itself, look RSD up to learn more about it and maybe, this is what you have. Knowing the problem is half the battle. Good Luck!
