what is wrong?

well this started 2 years ago when i would get squeezing pains in my chest and calves. i had a stress test and echo lately was good, but that was the beginning of it, i have gotten a horrible short terms memory and i feel so unclear with my thoughts, one time i forgot where the turning signal in my car was. i have shooting pains in my arms legs, and chest. and just last month i started getting these small areas on my palm that would turn cherry red and feel like i burned myself on something it would also get warm to the touch, now i get them on my shoulder where my arms connects. i have very weak feeling legs, hands, and arms and my hand actually hurt today like a cramping feeling in my hand and feet, it kinda hurts in my hands. the weakness in my arms/hands is enough to drive me crazy, i always have weird sensations in my head too. and also lately i been feeling like i have alot of saliva in my mouth that wont go away and sometimes when i talk i feel like its going to drip out and my jaw feels 'weird'. i just dont know what is wrong, i had a cat scan last month and it looks good. does anyone know wht could be wrong? would an mri or something else show if there are any problems? i am worried and my doctor said it is the cause of anxiety now that my cat scan is clear, i know i get anxiety but i is because i dont know what is wrong with me!! i have an appointment wednesday, what should i say to make him not blow me off like i'm a spaz case?

Re: what is wrong?

Hi Kirsten07,
Just don't leave his/her office untill you are 100% satisfied that the neuro has listened and taken notice of everything that you have to say, as you have mentioned here, and make sure that the neuro is going to investegate it -eg, full blood workup, nerve conduction test, EMG [tests for the larger nerves], possiblY MRI, thermal and vibration testing for the small fibre damage, glucose tolerance test, b12 levels, etc.there are heaps more, but hopefully they find the cause early.
It might even pay to write down some short notes that you want answered, its easy to forget some things when your in their office.

good luck for wed', and remember that you are paying them to work for you.
Tomy
