After a car accident a year ago. I have have seen 5 different doctors and finally had C5and C6 bone fusion surgery 6 weeks ago but still have the same same tingeling in face, head, hands, along with 5 sore spos down my spine. Physical Therapy intensifies my symptoms although I keep going. My Dr. has writtem perscriptions for Gabapentin, Methocarbamol, and Hydrocodone-APA. These do nothing for my systoms and the pain killer makes me very sick to my stomach. The Dr. says th surgery was a success. What the heck do I do now?
Q: I suffer from tingeling in my face, head and hands . What do I do?

Ask for stronger meds, get all your medical documentation and take to another dr for a second opinion. If all else talk with a good lawyer.. make sure you get ALL your documentation.
You might also try Aqua Therapy (water) via Dr. to go to PT for that.
Good Luck.
