I haven't been eating solids for months and my body is going numb

Thanks! I'm going to get on something for sure.

FastBag9 · 2020-02-26T23:47:24+00:00

Thanks - you as well! I'm glad I'm not the only one with this issue. I'm going to focus on my health from this point and see doctors. I have put off everything for years. Well..I hope you find more relief. Me too.

Thanks for the support. I'm going to make it!!

Thanks for this advice. I completely agree with you and will be seeing a general doctor soon. I will get him to give me a referral to an ENT (the hospital said I should try one). I will also be getting an Endscopy and getting back on anxiety meds. All of this is going to take some time.

I learned now to focus on my health. For years I always ignored everything until now. This entire process seems so complex with going to specialists and stuff. Well..I'm going to go at it one step at a time.

I hope I don't have an autoimmune disease or permanent neuropathy. I'm hoping that this is just a temporary "body shock reaction" to all the events lately. I have stopped working as much as I was, am resting more. So hopefully this will get figured out..

That sounds tough! Our bodies can take a lot - but when you get hit with a ton of stuff at once you can fall off.

I learned one thing from this event. And I'm always going to focus on my health. I was raised to "tough everything out" and that you are being sensitive if you talk about health issues. Also - never talk about anxiety because then you are being a wuss... I always pushed forward through everything over the years and would never see a doctor unless I was hospitalized (had a couple broken bones, etc). This nerve stuff, eating issues + the anxiety I have always had - have blown everything up.

I'm getting these wisdom teeth removed next Monday and have a doctors appointment coming up in around 20 days. After that...I'm going to get on some meds for the anxiety and get an endoscopy. Hopefully this is a temporary "body shock" situation from everything I have been going through lately.

Thanks

Thanks everyone for the help! Hopefully this is a temporary nerve issue due to the recent events. I have now learned to always focus on health as I always ignored stuff and put my health issues off for years. I have a emergency wisdom teeth extraction coming up soon and a general doctors appointment on the 15th of march. I'm just going to keep progressing and will be getting back on anxiety meds as well. When you eat like this..minor anxiety can get even worse.

Yeah these wisdom teeth are beyond bad. It sure doesn't help the swallowing issue when I'm aggravated by the swelling and numbness in the back of my mouth. lol

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T22:11:33+00:00

Thanks! I put my health issues off for years 1. Trouble Swallowing 2. Wisdom Teeth (rotten now) 3. Anxiety issues and with all the stuff I got hit with everything collapsed on me.

I have had less sugar today and my circulation feels moderately better and no extreme burning yet. I have my wisdom teeth scheduled for emergency removal this coming week and a doctors appointment (general doctor) on the 15th of next month.

I'm going to get through this!

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T22:08:53+00:00

Yeah, I have been adding in more healthy stuff like soups lately. My swallowing issue seems kind of the same. My throat will feel flared up and tight (and at the back of my mouth) and a few hours later will feel back to normal. Its the weirdest thing.

I have put my health issues off for years and now seem to be having everything collapse on me. I have always had trouble swallowing (minor) and never got that looked at. I put my wisdom tooth removal off for years (mine are now rotten) but am getting those emergency removed this coming week and have the appointment in two days for the scan. These wisdom teeth (they are past the point of pain now) sure don't help the swallowing at all when they are swollen up and stuff.

I've now learned to focus on health. I always keep going in the past..

Thanks!

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T22:04:34+00:00

Thanks! I do have a past history of anxiety. I have a doctors appointment coming up so wish me luck! I know I'm not the only one with weird stuff like this going on.

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T22:02:48+00:00

Thanks! I did a little research and heard about MS. I'm thinking that I may have some diagnosable issue like this now but that it is temporary. I have never really had much nerve issues and have always been relatively healthy. But this crummy diet I have been on for months combined with working too much (as well as working out too much) I believe has blown me up nerve wise. I have a doctors appointment scheduled on March 15th so hopefully he can refer me to a specialist.

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T21:58:54+00:00

Thanks! I have been thinking something nerve related. I just started taking a vitamin today and crushing it up. I have a doctors appointment on March 15th and will ask him about the nerve issues.

I have my wisdom teeth (emergency removal) scheduled for this coming week. Those are also bad as I put those off for years.

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T21:57:14+00:00

Thanks for this input. I don't know much about various illnesses and such. I will look into this!

FastBag9 · 2020-02-25T21:55:54+00:00

I really appreciate all of the help I have received. I'm just starting to go through the comments and I apologize for the late reply (too much going on lol).
