Numbness (seeking help for my mom)

[Guest guest]

My mom isn't a member of the group, so I'm posting seeking some help for her. Of course, as you all know I suffer from Lupus and other diseases related to my Lupus, but she has multiple problems as well and has been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and possible MS. She didn't go further with testing as she doesn't have health insurance and couldn't afford the expensive tests they are wanting to run to confirm things. In the past few weeks she has really went downhill - has gotten a numbness in her hands, especially fingers and now in the feet that is getting worse and worse. Do any of you suffer from the same thing? She has severe arthritis along with other medical problems, although this numbness that doesn't go away is something new to her. Her name is Kathy and her email address is WannaBYoung@... I know she would appreciate hearing from anyone with advice or maybe some idea of what might be going on with her....

A concerned daughter, Amy
