I'm very glad to hear that you've had success with the B-12. :-) I only pray that my condition, whatever it may be, is just as successful in treating. Scott

I too, have numbness in both feet and legs. I have had it for about six years. In the beginning it was slight, but I could still tell and it worried me. I went to my doctor and he stuck pins in my legs and feet and because I could feel it deep within, he said it was nothing. I tried other doctors and no one could say what it was.

I had a severe accident 16 years ago, and at 17 fell down a flight of stairs. I never gave that a thought as I healed, or did I. Finally two years ago I went to a Neurologist who ignored what I said and became fixated on Lupus.. I do not have Lupus.. what I do have is Neuropathy. ( Not Diabetes related ) but I am more convinced now that I have pinched nerves someone in my body because when I got for massage therapy, I actually get feeling that last for several days. Most of the time in between my feet feel so strange... I get markings on my left leg that indicates I am not getting proper circulation, but mostly in that one leg. At night I often get my feel tangled in the sheets, I often cannot keep my feet in shoes unless I can tie them. Walking bare foot is so strange - it is the most pecuilar feeling - hard to describe at times. Sometimes I feel like I am wearing artificial legs. Sometime when wearing shorts I feel like I have pants on to the middle of my legs ... there is feeling but it is so distant unless I were to step on something then the pain becomes intense. Dropping something like a pencil hurts like hell, yet last year I dropped a kitchen knife on the floor when in fact it was stuck in my foot and I never felt it. The weakness I have in my legs and feet concern me. I began getting shots of B 12 with success.... then I began taking MSM for all joint pain - and take a supplement called Cataplex B made by Standard Process.. I was amazed at how the feeling came back alot I must say. When I ran out of the supplement - the numbess came back. I went to a chiropractor after a second car accident in April and he too thinks it may be some kind of pinched nerve or disk problem. There are days that I feel like I am going to not be able to walk much longer - the odd sense of this numbness is beyond my comprehension and obviously most doctors.. some just say - we don't know .. ( those are at least honest answers ) others keep you running back and forth to no avail.. anyone have any ideas??? thank you... Janet

You know, I have a similar problem. For the past three years, I have been experiencing a gradual weakness in my legs. First, it began with my lower front part of the legs, and it has expanded to the back upper left one, making it difficult to walk up steps with the left leg. Testing after testing has shown up normal, but it is so frustrating. The only two abnormal things are that my CPK level is a little high (CPK is an enzyme the muscles make, and if the muscles are bruised, it leaks into the blood), and some other hormone was a little high--I am drawing a blank on the name, but this hormone is high when you are sick or have allergies.

Anywone have any similar cases to this one? I am getting worried that no one knows what this is. I feel like a puzzle.

Thanks,
