I’m not sure what medicine you might be taking but I just started taking Lamictal & my doctor warned me off the side effects. One of them she mentioned was numbness & tingling in the hands or legs. I also recommend seeing a chiropractor, I see one every 3 weeks to adjust my neck to help with my headaches.

Have you discussed it with your Dr? I lost feeling in my right calf for several months. It turned out it was caused by a nerve that go pinched in my SI joint. Chiropractor fixed me up with one lower back adjustment. In my case I also have EDS so I often get pinched nerves due to joint over extension.

Breen, I see you asked this question a few years ago but I just saw it! Hopefully you’ve found a solution! If not, a question: are you taking Dilantin (phenytoin)? I am and this used to happen to me every once in a while, and it would take a couple of hours until I could walk straight again! We discovered my phenytoin level was 22 (supposed to be 10-20). This is one of the side effects of too much of it in your body, the numbness/weakness/falling. Find out what your level is at… your neuro may change your dosage.

I go see him on the june 1st. I’ll find out what he says. Thanks.
