After talking to the pediatrician this morning, she referred him to a neurologist right away. The neurolgist's office should call me tomorrow to schedule an appointment.
Partner told last Saturday that he has tingling in his arms, legs, back and neck it has been going for about 2 weeks. He did not ahve anything when he was still in school but it started during summer camp. He can't recall falling or hurting himself. He describes it has annoying but not painful, but sometimes it makes it hard to write or color.
He had been doing a lot of arm and hand streching, but I really did not think anything of it.
He had been complaining about headaches and that was mentioned during is well child visit a couple weeks ago. This past few days, no head aches.
The tingling is always there but varies in intensity.
Out of curiosity, I made im walk on a straight line: no problem. Touch his nose alternating rigt and left hand: no problem. Same with eyes closed: no problem. Standing on one leg with eyes closed: could do it on his right leg but not on his left leg. He tried several times on his left legs but he would fall immediatly, to his surprise.
Of course, now I am getting real worried.
He is leaving for France in 2 weeks and will stay over there for a whole month... He is so looking forward to it. I pray for answers and nothing serious before then.
From what I read, tingling could come from a million different causes.
Please send some prayers our way.
