Hello.. I am new here and am concerned about some things going on in my body. I am a 43 year old female.
On 5/29 I could feel the beginning of a bladder infection. It was late at night so I was just going to go to bed. I got up one more time to pee and the inside of my thighs were numb. The next day they were still numb and remain numb. Since that time, my abdomen is now numb and the back of my lower legs are numb. I have had some tingling in my arms but it is not constant. A few times I had what felt like electric fire sensation in my arms. I have also been having periods of facial numbness. I am now having random tingling in my feet and arms and there is a cooling sensation with then tingling.
I do have fibromyalgia and went and saw the rheumatologist that week. They said that this was not related to Fibro. They referred me to a neurologist and I am waiting for the appt which is two weeks away. I am a little heavy so had all my routine blood work done and it all came back ok except for my cholesterol being a little high.
After I completed an 8 day course of antibiotics for the UTI, within 24 hours I could feel the same bladder pressure and that my bladder was not emptying. I am now on round two of antibiotics.
Any thoughts?
I did post this in neurology, but haven’t had any sort of response so I thought I would try here since my rheumatologist mentioned that he was concerned about MS. I added a little bit more to this post since more has happened today.
