    Numbness on the left side of whole body
    Hi,

    My mom is about 62 yrs old. She has persisting pain and numbness in the left side of her neck, left shoulder, left hand and down to thighs and feet.

    The pain is inside the skin while there is numbness outside. The pain and numbness sometimes get so severe (particularly in the left thigh) that she cannot walk. She also unable to sleep towards left side due to the pain. Doctors here have tried so many medicines but we are yet to find one that can help.

    What do you think the reason is for Pain and Numbness?

    Thanks

    There's really no way for anyone on the internet to be able to give you a diagnosis. There are so many things this could be, and anything we mention would only be a guess.

    What sorts of test have the doctors done on your mother? What diagnosis have they given?

    Hello.. I'm having same problems I'm not sure if this will help any but doctor thinks I might have MS which if so your mother is having the same problems as me but the only thing that don't quite fit is the average age of getting MS is 20-40s.. so I'm not sure ask a doctor about this.. worth a shot good luck!
