Went to the rheumatologist Friday and he noticed that my fingertips were blue and for the past 2 weeks I've noticed numbness in my arms, lower legs and feet. Idk if I should be concerned or not. So many new things happening that idk whether it's normal or not

I have had numbness start in my feet & legs. Traveled to my lower pelvic area, them my arms. I freaked out went to my surgeon a d found out it was due to lack of potassium. He gave me prescription potassium. It's been 4 weeks and my legs are still slightly tingly.

Call your doc or nut.

Any change in sensation, motor function will usually be related to vitamin/ mineral deficiency. Bottom line see your Dr. And take Vitamins for life. Once imbalance is found, may take up to 2 months to return to normal.

I had similar symptoms and it was a potassium deficiency. I was told to eat 1/3 of a banana per day and drink G2 mixed with Water throughout the day. I've been doing that for 4 weeks and feel much, much better. No more tingles in my fingers and nose!
