Q: Strange Sensations/anyone Else???
asked by: emilybug on April 2nd, 2007

Hi,

After a rather stressful time I have found myself getting these strange sensations. I also had this 2 years ago.
Does anyone else get this???

Regularily, through the day it feels like a little water is being messed somewhere on me. Arm, leg etc.
Its not numbness or pins and needles. Its like flicks of water that are subtle and last a second.

Of course, I'm worried that its a nerve condition, ms etc.

Any advice here? I have no other symptoms...other than general anxiety.

Thanks all!

Hi There
Sounds to me like nerve endings are sensitive. If this does keep up or other symptoms arrise, yes, have this checked out. Could be nothing, but you'd at least have peace of mind in knowing! Smile

Thank you for the response.
I mentioned this to my GP a couple years ago when I last noticed it. She said its normal to get little sensations , especially with anxiety. If they get worse, or I develop other things to check back with her.

I'm freaking myself out going on MS sights all the time, trying to make sense of stuff. Maybe making myself psychosomatic and terrified!

The other way to describe this feeling is like very mild little sparks that last 1 second, somewhere on your leg or arm.

Anyone else get this or have any thougths???


Thankyou!!
