A member asked:

What is something that could cause numbness and slight muscle weakness through my body?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

So many things: There are so many things that could produce these very non specific symptoms. It really would not be responsible for me to list them here. It would be best to see your doctor and discuss your symptoms.
