numbness/neuropathy

I am about 5 years out from RNY and lost about 200 # total. I haven't had health insurance until this past 6 months or so and had developed slight numbness in my feet about 1 year ago, which is gone now and now my left arm is numb and tingly. My left leg has also in this past week developed slight pain to the touch-like a burning type pain from the thigh down to calf. Uncomfortable at times. I went to er and nothing found,. I am having some nerve tests done next week but they have been done before with no luck also. My question is if any other WLS members are having anything like this happening and if so, what was your outcome? Could it be severe vitamin deficiencys? I do the best I can with the nutrition but it has been hard also. I have lost a job/ went through divorce and so on and things have been hard but I am praying this doesn't get worse. I am going back to see surgeon who did thie RNY shortly also. Thank you for anything you could offer me. Cheryl
