Symptoms On Left Side of Body Posted: 09-05-05 17:02pm
Hi, i've been having weird symptoms for
the past two months: tingling/numbness
that comes and goes and accute pains, but
mostly only on the left side of my body.
It started with my leg hurting randomly,
then I started feeling a tingling on the
left half of my lips, then tingling
sensations all down my arm and leg, and
also pressure behind my left eye. Along
with these symptoms comes
i've been to a doctor, a neurologist, and
a cartiologist, had mris of my brain and
spine, and every test has come back
negative.
I've read that diabetes can cause nerve
damage which could explain the
pains/tingling, but only on the left side
of my body?

Dear dibetic, I have no answer but wanted
to share what I experienced today. I've
been type-1 diabetic for 43 years. Today
for the first time I experienced pain in
my right leg especially when coming down
the stairs. I do not know whether this is
diabetes related or just some temporary
non-diabetes related thing but it worried
me enough to join this forum and I read
your comments. .. :( hope you feel
better soon. Take care ...

It sounds like you are having neuropathy
issues. Have you been checked for a
possible tia (transient ischemic attack)
which is a "warning stroke" or
"mini-stroke" that produces stroke-like
symptoms but no lasting damage.
