My arms and legs always have the same sensation each day. Some days it kicks up to pain from discomfort, but I say the normal is the sensation of licking a nine volt battery. While not thrilled with the feeling, I have learned to accept it and move on. Hate when it ratchets up to electrical shock or knife cuts.

CoolLioness I just googled Lhermittes it is exactly what I get . I never heard of it before . Thank you for the info.😄

@A MyMSTeam Member,, The minute I saw what you wrote about LHermittes Sign, I wrote it down so I could see what Google & a few medical sites say about it. I described it (the Taser-like sensation I get from my neck to the middle of the left side halfway up my head) to my smart ophthalmologist last week. Then I remembered I had 2 herniated discs in my neck approx. 5 yeas ago==could this be a clue ??)(LOL); For the whole summer I thought it was a 'stiff' neck'
So I stopped using my heavy-duty fan when I slept. Eventually I went to a local walk-in clinic. They did an MRI (not as rough as an MS MRI). The doc gave me a collar to wear and said I didn't have to wear it if it wasn't comfortable.
Conclusion: Ophthalmologist said I should see an orthopedic doc, but NOT if he/she has SURGEON after the "orthopedic" label. I'll bring it up to my neuro (via email) + see what she says.
Thanks for the info.

That is neuropathy and Gabapentin usually helps me.

I used to get electric shocks from my thighs down to my knees; my neuro prescribed Neurontin (generic: gabapentin). That helped . BUT for the last 6 months I feel an electric shock from my neck upward to the middle of my head; someone described hers as feeling like she's being 'tasered'. The shock lasts for 1 or 2 seconds, but it feels deeper and worse that what I had on my legs, and Neurontin isn't helping. Current neuro says it's 'just a nerve'. unacceptable.
