625530 tn?1221866670 Thanks so much for your reply. Sleep deprivation hasn't been a problem, and I haven't been feeling tired or poorly in any other way -- just the paresthesia. I know paresthesia can be a part of panic attacks, but could stress/anxiety cause paresthesia all over the body for an entire month? I'd be *delighted* if that were the explanation, but it seems too good to be true. If the paresthesia is from is Lyme, I'm pretty sure it's my first and only symptom of the disease.
Avatar m tn Ive already seen a Neurologist, who ordered the MRIs and the EMG test and he couldnt help me. I dont have any other symptoms like fatigue/headache/flu like symptoms. I sleep decent but not great. What could this be? Its starting to scare me to death and the stress makes it worse. I need help!!
190673 tn?1259203266 It says that chronic anxiety can cause muscle cramps (from tensing up) and that muscle cramps can be a cause of paresthesia(pins and needles) Us worriers have to learn relaxation technics, yoga is an excellent one!
Avatar m tn It is possibly health anxiety related IF you are dealing with a high level of anxiety, its more likely along those lines if you dont seem to have symptoms during the day when your busy and distracted, or you experience symptoms when your thoughts are spinning....
Avatar n tn One reason that the symptoms seem to decrease outside could be because your attention is taken away from the symptoms by what is outdoors. It could be anxiety. You are more prone to notice the symptoms more when you are in your "zone" inside your home. There is more to attract your attention outside. If it continues to be a bother, I would see your doctor and not rely on what they tell you in an Urgent Care clinic.
Avatar f tn I know each person is different and I know that many people experience relapse and remission. So my question is if someone has symptoms that mimic MS for years and they never really go away (just let up a little for maybe a few hours) is this still possible in MS? I have anywhere from 1 to 5 symptoms all day long (sometimes 1 sometimes all 5 at once). They never have gone away, but new ones come on.
Avatar m tn Part of your body is covered with static electricity? Is this a type of paresthesia or something else?
941625 tn?1263581782 In fact, it was my first noticeable ms symptoms over twenty years ago. At the time it was only my tongue and after all these years it occurs just about all over my body. Some days just about everywhere it seems at some point during the day and other days just my toes. It is very strange to say the least. You didn't say if you are dx with ms or not. Either way, if it is new for you, I would definitely tell the dr the next time you see him or her.
Avatar m tn For this reason she cant sleep tight in night and the rate of depression is increasing day by day. I read a lot in web and find a term Presthesia,which symptoms are similar with the symptoms of my gf. Im worried about her.I ove her a lot.Please help me..What should i do now??
Avatar m tn Although rare, Viagra (sildenafil), Cialis (tadalafil) and Levitra (vardenafil) can cause muscle pain and unusual skin sensations or paresthesia. In clinical studies, Viagra caused muscle pain and paresthesia in less than 2% of patients. Patients who experience these side effects should stop taking the medication and consult their physician. These medications increase blood flow to the penis by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5).
Avatar n tn Not so much that I was having panic attacks or feelings of anxiety on a constant basis, but he opined that the anxiety could be causing these symptoms, which in turn could be affecting the anxiety. He prescribed me some buproprion and I started taking it the next day. My anxiety levels have dropped, but those symptoms still persist. Earlier this week, I started feeling paresthesia in my skull.

Avatar m tn Hi, I was Dxed with MS about a year ago. Prior to that I had mild to no symptoms and my MRIs are relatively clean with the expection of a less than handful amount of lesions. In the past six months I've been experiencing Paresthesia and the pain is so intense I could jump out of a window when it seems to occur. I've complained to my doctor about it but he says it's typical for MS patients to experience it.
Avatar f tn So, I have switched to loratadine and have been using this one for a few months. However, the paresthesia still occurs. It has even changed so that it is in my whole bottom jaw, and sometimes in the top of my mouth. I thought it could be low B12, but I had that tested fairly recently, and it was fine. I do have low iron though. Finally, I find that it can be set off by anything from an allergen to breathing too deeply. Do you have any idea of what the cause could be? Thank-you.
Avatar f tn Thanks for your reply! Seems like everything is connected - thyroid dysfunction can cause anxiety too, but in the first place my stress might have led to the imbalance.
Avatar n tn I do have a bit of shortness of breath but I think it is mostly brought on by anxiety as when I am not thinking about my breathing I am fine - it is only when I start panicking or think about breathing does the shortness of breath seem to appear. Today I also experienced a cold back when I got up. I thought I was going crazy. Not sure if this is related to quitting smoking or the chest pain. Any help would be great...
297366 tn?1215813051 In doing some research into what I was experincing I found the following information. (I can't remember the site location, but it was a reputable one.) This really helped me as a limbo-lander to understand that the symptoms I'm experiencing make sense in respect to a possible diagnosis of MS. My doctor seems to think that this is what I have, although it's unusually slow to progress and my tests are normal.
Avatar f tn Facet joint hypertrophy seen at C4-5, right greater than left. Could these findings alone account for all my paresthesia symptoms? If so, what treatment is there to heal me?
