Does anyone experience a feeling of hot and cold sensations in your arms and legs? Also.. Do you feel a sensation like something is crawling on your arms and legs but there is nothing there?

I get a feeling on my arms and legs sometimes that's like drops of ice cold water are sprinkling on them in spots. When I look there's nothing there. I mean the skin is dry and there isn't anything wet at all. As far as something crawling goes the feeling I get I describe as being like something landed on me and is walking around on my skin. It's weird, as I was typing that I got the feeling a couple times.

Yes, me too sometimes! It's very unnerving (haha). ....And random stabs of pain throughout my body. I'm pretty sure I now know quite accurately what it's like to be stabbed. :-P I also get the hot/cold sensations in my upper back/shoulders from time to time as well as in extremities. Thanks everyone for sharing....while I am sorry you feel this too, I'm glad we're in this together and that I'm not the only one feeling like i'm crazy!

The way I have always described my symptoms to my neurologist is it feels like there are ants๐Ÿœ๐Ÿœ crawling on my arms & hands all of the time.

โœฆ sometimes the ants start biting and
โœฆ sometimes the bites start stinging
โœฆ then the bites can start burning.

Not always going into that cascade of "biting ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ stinging ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ burning๐Ÿ”ฅ"

But the ants๐Ÿœ๐Ÿœ are always crawling on my arms and my hands.
