###Human: How can numbness and burning at the base of the neck with shooting pains be treated? ###Assistant: Hello. I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to low vitamin D levels. Anyway, I would also recommend performing further tests if you have not already performed yet: 1. Thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction. 2. Vitamin B12 levels for the possible deficiency. Nerve conduction studies would help investigate for neuropathy or motor neuron disease. Regarding Parkinson's, a DAT scan would help investigate for this disorder. Anyway, your symptoms are not typical of this disorder.
