My limbs have been so weird lately. Legs and arms but more in legs. I can hardly describe the feeling which is taking over more and more. The best I can do is the way your leg feels if you have been sitting on your foot. It happens whether I am sitting or standing. They are very heavy. Do I blame my fibro on this?

I think you should let your doctor know about this. I have had fibro a very long time and haven't experienced this type of numbness. I have back problems, too, and yet I only have slight numbness on the outside of one leg.

Let us know what you find you because we do care about you.

It sounds somewhat familiar. However, I blame my neuro condition (not yet specified or accurately diagnosed) more than the fibro. I can sometimes feel like I left one of my feet behind while walking--that's a strange feeling!

Have you seen a neurologist?

I, like Sherrine, also have back problems as well as neck issues and the numbness you are describing sounds like what I have at times. But I contribute this to my back and/or neck, not fibro.

I have heavy legs due to a vein circulation problem.

Very alarmed now.  My legs keep falling asleep and my arms to not work to work either.  Trying to stay calm to make sure that I am not making the situation worse but...........  Feeling very weird

dechaine: Would it be possible for a doctor to see you sooner than you had planned? It may provide a lot of relief and less stress, especially over the holidays.  Maybe you could express that you're very concerned.

Best wishes and thinking of you. yeah

Man I was obviously very panicked above, that was allot of errors. LOL

I made it thru the night and I can still walk Thank you Jesus!

I could have it checked before then because I work for doctors but my copay for the brain MRI is $250.00 so I wanted to wait till after Christmas. However if I experience that again I will call promptly. I was so scared!

Thank you all again for your support. I don't post much on here or reply but only because I still work and when I get home there is nothing left but I so appreciate this forum. Thanks to you all and I hope your holliday is awesome!!!
