The sensation you are experiencing is most likely paresthesia. It can be a burning sensation on the skin, much like sunburn, but it can also be a tingling, crawling or prickling sensation. There hasn't been a direct link found between FM and paresthesia as of yet, so it is most likely a coincidence, however it is a symptom of several illnesses and could be a sign of a pinched nerve or nerve damage. People who have peripheral neuropathy as a result of diabetes, lupus, Guillann-Barre syndrome or multiple sclerosis are likely to experience paresthesia. If you have any of these illnesses, or suspect nerve damage or a pinched nerve, it may explain the underlying cause. If you have not been diagnosed with any of those illnesses, it is a good idea to talk to your doctor about it, to get to the root of the problem. It may be something as simple as a pinched nerve, but if it is something more serious, you don't want to let it go without getting checked out. Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion. ~ TOOL |
