    My feet fell heavy and like there is concrete in them. Hands are extra sensitive?
    I've been to orthopedic docter, who sent me to a neuro surgent, who sent me to neurologist, who sent me to a rhemotolgist, now I'm on my way to Cancer specialist. I've been in constant pain for 2 months. Also lost hair, and my pupils do not mstch up. Anyone have an idea what's wrong with me?

    I have no idea.
    I have heard that hair loss in significant clumps can be a B vitamin deficiency.
    Heavy feeling feet and sensitive hands sounds related to circulation, from clogged arteries to weak valves to high BP etc.
    BUT this is mere speculation.
    You are going to see another specialist, so just try to be patient.
    Are you overweight, sedentary, eating too much of any unhealthy foods? Do you smoke?
    What do you mean your pupils don't line up?

    Wyneama,

    You provide peripheral neuorpathy (hands & feet), "constant pain...hair loss" and pupillary asymmetry (pupils do not mstch), as symptoms. Any one of these symptoms are or should be worrisome to you or your doctor and elicit further investigation.

    Continuing your description... you were sequentially referred to an orthopedic physician, a neurologist, neurosurgeon, rheumatologist, and oncologist. That's a thorough medical evaluative process. Focus on those results.

    It seems, to me, that your physicians are following a necessary, cautionary and scientifically supported system (leaving no stone unturned) in order to accurately diagnose your condition.

    I know it is tough to live with not knowing but that's better than the temporary assuage of misinformation. Medical Doctors (MD) are very good at dealing with most physical ailments.

    Based on the information you have provided, I strongly recommend continued compliance with the recommendations of your physician(s), those familiar with you and your condition and avoidance of secondary opinions.
