I have numbness in my left leg (upper area), am urinating ...
Sent to Health Experts May 23 10:59 PM

I have numbness in my left leg (upper area), am urinating almost every 1/2 hour or so, and am so exhausted most of the time that sometimes I can't hardly get up in the AM, no matter if I get a full night's sleep or not. My doctor has taken countless blood tests and tested my thyroid- everything came up normal. I was even sent for an MRI, which also came out normal. My symptoms- especially my urination and my fatigue are getting worse. Can anyone guide me in the right direction?

 

Optional Information:
Female , Age: 3838

Already Tried:
Blood tests, thyroid tests, MRI

Hi, I hope I am able to shed some light on you with some information I have. I will need you to answer a few questions first, ok? First has your Doctor checked you for diabetes? Meaning a full assessment. Hga1b blood test and fasting glucose test. New diabetics have some of these symnptoms: always thirsty, constantly tired, frequent infections, leg cramps or prickling in your fingers or toes, blurry vision. Diabetics also have neuropathies which are characterized by numbness,tingling, pain, and cramping in hands, feet and other parts of body.

With kind regards please answer these questions so I can get more info to you. Or if this answer is acceptable to you please honor my efforts and Accept this informative summary. Thank you for your time. Bless You.

Reply to Chanel's Post: My doctor said that she had thought that I was a diabetic, especially because of my symptoms-also I had forgotten to mention the always thirsty part. It sounds cut and dried, but she insists the blood tests are normal. I don't remember her doing a glucose test- would she have done that with the original blood work? and this fasting test I know she didn't do. Thanks for your help.
