Question:
Along with severe tingling in the chest, stomach, and legs, I can not focus my eyes.

I walk off balance, as if I'm going to tip over, my eyes won't focus other than straight ahead. I have severe tingling and numbness in my upper chest, stomach, and legs. Could this be caused by some sort of vitamin deficiency? Please respond asap, I'm meeting with yet another doctor tomorrow. Thank you very much.    — Jo-Ann S. (posted on August 25, 2003)

I Heard someone once say that a person they knew was having all kinds of weird MS type symptons and found out it was vitamin b defiency. This person was almost wheelchair bound, unstable on there feet. Once dr found that they did massive dosage of Vit B and withing couple weeks all better.

Why are you on the computer?! Get thee to a doctor! I don't want to alarm you. Your symptoms could be something relatively mild, like a vitamin deficiency, but they could be something serious. Most of us on this board are not medical people and therefore not qualified to diagnose, and I think this could be serious enough to warrant medical attention.

I agree with the previous poster - go to a doctor immediately. If you can't get in to see one today, go to the emergency room.
