My reports always show a high esr reading. My Hb count is low and Iron levels are 18, though the docs injected me with an iron drip about 1.5 months ago. I also have a bulged disc followed with a numb right leg and foot drop along with terrible pain in calf muscles and knees. At times My limbs go stiff and jaws tighten, the condition which remains for an average of half an hour. (May/May not be followed with fainting). There hasnt been any diagnosis in the past few years,MRIs brain, EEGs normal.
