Guest guest Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 I'm not one for posting about my ailments much but maybe someone here can help? I'm very perplexed. Wed. I started getting these tingling/burning feelings in my lips, just on the left side. Kind of like when you get peppermint or hot sauce on them. I still have that today, comes and goes. My left eye was tearing really bad on Thurs. I was thinking maybe Bell's palsy but I haven't lost any muscle control. Thurs. night I had prickly feelings in my lower legs, both of them, when I was walking in the yard. I have felt a few stray twinges in my left cheek and temple. Other than that, it's still just the tingling in my lips, mostly the corner of my mouth, on the left side. I have never had a herpes cold sore. I don't have any visible marks. I'm stumped. I'm only 36 and in fairly good health (no diabetes, high bp or anything like that), just overweight. I was thinking stroke too but it's just my face for the most part. What do you think? I'm thinking I may have to go see my PCP next week if it continues. Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Dear Michelle, I am not a doctor so I can not speak about any deseases. I do know that being overweight puts great strain on the spinal column and overall circulation. I did have back problems and using my abdomin muscles more was a big part of the theropy that ultimately cured my pains. As of your nerve problems your weight may well have resulted in adverse effects such as your twitching. Try some abdominal work and see a chiropractor. Hope this helps. Kathy Express yourself with Y!

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Thanks Kathy. I've been thinking about seeing a chiropractor anyway. Plus, I haven't done any yoga in about a month and I was going weekly. I really need to do some today and see if that helps. It's so strange! Last night it was bothering me around my left ear and this morning it's up by my eye. I do think it's a nerve thing. Just really weird how it kind of moves around my left side of the face and the tingling parts! Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
