I'm dealing with a burning sensation all over my body and it feels like nerve pain, with pins and needles, and sometimes it feels like a heat wave inside. I've also got nerve pain in my jaw. I've been told I might have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome by one doctor in NZ, and a neurologist mentioned Central Pain Syndrome. I'm really concerned and a bit confused about these diagnoses. Could you explain what they mean and how they differ? Also, what can I do to manage or reduce these symptoms?

Approximately 80% of patients with CRPS type I achieve complete, spontaneous relief of signs and symptoms within 18 months; however, no diagnostic criteria have been shown to predict which patients will fall into this category. Some of the patients whose symptoms do not resolve spontaneously may still be cured by treatment. Of the patients who develop refractory CRPS type I, 50-80% have disability secondary to pain andor a limited range of motion. The main disabilities are limitations in their activities of daily living (ADL).

My dad has had muscle wastage in his shoulders for the last 25-30 years, and now it's starting in his legs. He had cervical surgery for C5-C6 in 2001 because of tingling, but one doctor thinks it might be MND. We're really unsure could this be MND or something else?

I've noticed that my left leg and arm seem to go numb pretty often when I'm sleeping. It happens more on the left side, and I'm starting to get a bit worried. Also, during sex, I've felt like my heart is somewhat heavier than usual. I'm just curious if these things are connected or if I should be concerned. Any ideas on what might be causing these symptoms?
My left leg and left arm get numb more frequently while sleeping. This could be due to poor blood circulation or nerve compression. I recommend trying Vitamin B complex supplements to improve nerve health. Additionally, consider using a magnesium supplement to help with muscle relaxation and blood flow. For the feeling of a heavier heart during sex, it is important to monitor your heart health. I suggest taking low-dose aspirin daily to help with blood flow and consulting a cardiologist for further evaluation.
