Neuropathy in hands ?!
Question: Neuropathy in hands .?
i've been through the gamut. they thought it was gbs, then they didn't...finally diagnosed...neuropathy-acute sensory.
symptoms as of two weeks in:
*numb tingling in hands
*can barely taste food
the doctor that diagnosed said it would be gone in a couple of days. i'm taking the vitamins, eating more sensibly, cut out alcohol, drinking more water...it doesn't seem to be going away.
i feel like it's coming from the top vertebrae in my neck as there's a dull pain there. this is not uncommon as i've had a few injuries to the back and neck over the years. but, it seems persistent now.
are taste buds part of the peripheral nerve system.?

Answers:
Some medications will cause this. Xalatan, Cosopt, and Timolol are three that are sometimes guilty. A worst case scenario would be brain tumor. There are a number of good neck stretching exercises which loosen up the neck and upper back. I would try a chiropractor at least one session.Health Question & Answer
