Arachnoidis popped up when I was doing a searching last night and at list that it can cause burden sensation and spine, as well as loss of balance weakness in the legs tingling down the arms are on the skin like bugs are crawling all over you. It also said it can cause seizures as well and at the end it did say when it does get severe, it can easily cause paralysis. I’m just wondering if this is what I’ve been dealing with

You're going to need to mention that to your neurologist, and see what they tell you.

I don't always go with information that is read on the Internet. I reach out to my pharmacist and/or my specialist when looking at side effects especially when you are looking at items that involve a specialist.

It's okay to be your own advocate and research but it is highly suggested to get your specialist involved or speak with your primary care if the specialist will not work with you.

Medications can cause side effects after they are taken in some cases. Every person reacts different. The best person to speak with is a local pharmacist about your concerns then take those concerns directly to the specialist that provided the prescription. If the specialist will not provide assistance visit your primary care about this matter sharing all information asking for assistance.

I agree with Sue, don't trust everything you read on the internet as conditions vary, sources may not always be reliable, etc.. All conditions may not be reviewed. Do your research, bring it to your doc, or someone you trust with medical background. If they can't address it, ask if they know of a resource that can.
