Ok..really quick and hugely over reacting message! For the last few weeks I have had episodes of tingling down my left side (esp my leg, like restless leg syndrome) but my eye feels a bit numb and the corner of my mouth and my shoulder and arm have started joining in!!! No weekness, no droopiness in my face or pain or anything else just a numb and tingling feeling comes and goes, but mostly staying at the moment!!! Have made a GP appt for in a couple of weeks and played it down to DH..trapped nerve etc etc, but secretly convinced I have some awful neurological illness!!!!!! Otherwise am and always have been very healthy.Can't share this with anyone else as want to remain positive and underplaying though secretly scared to death!!!!

There are all sorts of weird and wonderful viruses. Could be one of those, maybe? Why aren't you seeing the GP for 2 weeks??

Well, it's a week and a half. Appointments with the one 'good' doc at our surgery are like gold dust! If it gets worse I can (and will) make an emergency appointment, but I really want to see a specific GP and this was the earliest they could offer.

Keep your appointment for two weeks time but get an emergency one in the meantime. Those symptoms aren't signs of normal health. And share your fears with someone close. Hope you get it sorted
