Seen GP.

Now booked for full round of blood tests on Thursday morning to check liver, blood sugar and vitamins.

Advised if that is normal he will refer for nerve conduction tests.

He feels that as I only binge heavily on a weekend and I eat generaly well it would be unusual for the pins and needles to be neuropathy but he does think repeated withdrawal potentially explains symptoms.

I'm also going to step back the coffee. I binge that 7 days a week, often 4 double shot flat whites during the working day to keep myself going and sometimes a energy drink in evening to get work done. I even sneak in espressos during pub crawls. Pretty sure thats not helping my body much either. Coming off caffine is horrid in its own right so i'll slowly reduce that. Probably wont need as much if im not hanging sunday through to Wednesday every week.
