numb/achy feeling in arms and legs

[Anne04]

Hello everyone. For the past few months I have had a numb/heavy feeling in my calves and forearms, and I notice it especially when I'm lyong down trying to sleep. Today I have that feeling more in my arms and now also a numb/tingling feeling in my face. I know that a lot of people with IC also have other conditions. Have any of you had these symptoms, and can you tell me what caused it? I am getting a little worried it could be something serious and need some advice. Thank you!

I definetly think you should call your primary/family doctor with any new symptoms, especially if they have been occuring for a few months. Your doctor knows what meds you are on, your past medical history, your current medical history, blood pressure, etc.

I have no idea as to what could be causing these things, but I know that if I were having those symptoms, I would be calling my doctor's office asking for an appointment. Please call them.

You definitely need to call your doctor. I had something similar and it was caused by a potassium deficiency --- not a good thing to have.
