Excruciating chronic left side neck pain plus lumbar issues

Hi Leigh thanks for your reply.
I haven't been sick, I haven't been getting colds or flus.
I can definitely have it check out.
Because I was involved in 2 accidents while riding the bike I had fractures and whiplash in the past.
As of a month ago when I lie down, put my right side of the head on the pillow, I feel some parts of my neck burning and numb, then my legs near the hips are numb, plus my feet especially my toes get tight. I am worried.
This causes me stress and anxiety because I feel that I am loosing sensation.
The daily drugs for managing the pain are making me sick, nauseous and lacking focus.
The doctors have been taking their time.
Alfred

Hi Alfred, I can only imagine how frustrating this is. The only reason I mentioned autoimmune was because you seem to be having issues in the lower part of your body as well, forgive me if this was also caused by the accidents. Autoimmune diseases can manifest in so many different ways and you wouldn’t even know you have one, I know is sounds odd but the neurological symptoms were a bit of a red flag to me although I am not a doctor. Just trying to figure out some thing that might help you. It’s not hard for them to run an ANA blood test. I could be completely off base was just wondering if it could be a possibility.
