[|Human|] Hi. Have noticed a return since this time last year of bilateral hand and feet tingling, which took about 2-3 months to disappear when I had it before. Wondering if recent interior painting, even while wearing a respirator, and running a fan with windows open, is to blame. Had painted a few rooms also prior to last onset. Noticed that the end of my tongue was tingling also during the days I was painting, but while that has subsided, the extremity tingling has come about. Am otherwise healthy. Cannot seem to link to lack of proper nutrients, or noticed any other symptoms. Saw a neurologist last time who cleared my bloodwork and wanted to do nerve conduction study next. I declined the nerve tests, then symptoms resolved shortly thereafter. What should I make of the return of symptoms?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that you are having a medical condition diffusely affecting the nerves in your body. This can cause symptoms of bilateral hand and feet tingling. Since the neurologist has examined you, it will help if you get the nerve conduction study. This is because some nerves can get damages and in early stages cause symptoms like tingling. By doing nerve conduction tests, the functioning of nerves will be evaluated and any suspicion confirmed. This might be followed by MRI scan of brain and spinal cord to see any signs of disease in your system. Since you have written that it is a repeat condition, it will help to discuss your previous medical records and any treatment given at that time. Please stay mentally relaxed and get nerve conduction and other tests done. This will help confirm diagnosis and provide required treatment.
