Laura,

No, my dx is still TM.

My brother said he gets this kind of numbness when he gets a migraine, and I
did have a headache accompanying the numbness. The diarrhea makes me
think it was some kind of weird virus.

Kevin,

Do you have an MS diagnosis? This is a rather common symptom among MS patients...numb patches here and there. I've gotten them on my tongue and scalp before, among other places.

Hi All,

Well, this has been a weird week for me re: health.

Tuesday night I started getting severe diarrhea. Shortly after that my
tongue started tingling and going numb, then my lips. This continued
wednesday, but I had a nurse coming to visit me to check on bedsores
on wednesday. She looked at my mouth but didn't feel the numbness was an emergency.
By thursday the numbness was getting worse so I took an ambulance to
the ER. They checked everything, blood, heart, liver, kidneys, ct-scan of brain, found nothing wrong. Said it could be related to my reflux and possible reaction to meds and OTC stomach meds I take. Also suggested it could be exacerbation of TM symptoms. Finally, maybe emotional causes. In any case, the weird numbness is gone and I'm thankful. Has anyone else had their tongue/mouth go numb?

Hope everyone is doing well as possible.

Kevin
