Has anyone had numbness and tingling in one leg?
I recently started noticing some numbness in my leg and it's making me a little worried. It comes and goes, but I haven't really experienced this before. Has anyone else dealt with something similar? What did you do about it?

Hello @sergiomcarson, Welcome to Connect. I have some numbness and tingling in both of my legs that is due to my idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy. A pinched nerve can cause symptoms like you are describing. Mayo has more information here - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pinched-nerve/symptoms-causes/syc-20354746.
Have you discussed the numbness and tingling symptoms with your doctor?

1 ReactionHi,
When I feel my seizure coming, I wiould first feel tingling, numbness and then muscle convulsions generally followed. Intensity varied. Occasionally, they wouldn’t be visible to outsiders but uncomfortable sensation lingered. I believe it will remain this way for awhile. Since my epilepsy is multifocal one, it’s harder to pinpoint for certain which part of the brain is the cause.
Cheers,
Louis
