Hello,
I know your post is from 2022, but I'm wondering if your still experiencing the same symptoms? Did your symptoms get better or worse? Did any of the doctors you saw have given you a diagnosis? I'm sorry for all my questions. I have been going to the doctor due to tingling, burning and numbness in my hands, arms, legs and feet. So far from what I am being told is it's due to long term effects of covid. It's very scary and I'm honestly at loss. I'm scheduled to see my neurologist again in February. I have gone for CT scan, MRI, EMG and bloodwork. All are coming back normal. I even had one doctor tell me it's a pinch normal and put me on naproxen. Nothing seems to help. The symptoms seem to be getting worse. I also saw a vascular Dr that put me on a daily baby aspirin. I almost feel like my nervous system is being attacked. Ever day I wake up and there's a new part of my body that feels the burning, tingling and numbness. Thanks for listening to my rant. It's definitely taking a toll mentally.

I’m so sorry you’re experiencing these symptoms. Have you been tested for Small Fiber Neuropathy? I’m having burning throughout my entire body but my head and my mouth are feeling the worst. I know how frustrated you feel. I will be praying for some relief!!

@lmmaldonado Were your MRIs done with contrast? Did you get an injection of dye halfway through the MRI? Several years ago I had symptoms similar to yours. I was diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis. Its an inflammation of the spinal cord resulting in demyelination. Its diagnosed using MRI with contrast.
