I went to an oncologist/hematologist in Jackson, MS, he did blood tests and a bone marrow biopsy. My blood test showed a faint band on my gamma region, but biopsy showed nothing. He suggested that I might want to go to the Mayo Clinic. I saw a dermatologist for the waxy rash on my face and my hair falling out, she said that it looks like an autoimmune disease that my body isn’t fighting and it is attacking my nervous and neurological systems. I fall very often, with no warning, I have low B12, folic acid and my iron level is 22. My vision is extremely blurry unless I put on +1.50 readers, I have never had to wear glasses. I have the feeling of an electrical jolt in my feet and then they go numb. I have constant headaches with hardly any relief. I have had shingles 3 times since January of this year, I’ve lost 60+ lbs not intentionally. Some days I am numb from my waist down. Any ideas?

@robin396, Just a quick search on a medical symptom checker for Blurred vision, Joint pain, Numbness there are many conditions that can cause the symptoms. That's probably why your oncologist/hematologist mentioned you might want to go to Mayo Clinic. Here's a symptom checker if you want to give it a try - https://symptoms.webmd.com/.

Have you thought about seeking help at a major teaching hospital or health facility like Mayo Clinic? If you would like to seek help from Mayo Clinic, contact one of the appointment offices. The contact information for Minnesota, Arizona and Florida can be found here http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.
