Does anyone ever feel like like they have a bug or something crawling on them. I had this feeling off and on all day yesterday I keep asking my wife to look and see if she seen anything and she said there is nothing there. But it feels just like a bug or something crawling on you I also felt like it was on my legs too. Sure does get on your nerves though I have had it happen before but yesterday it was bad.

Members flooded the thread about the 'crawling bug' sensation with relief and recognition, with many sharing that they had also checked their bodies or asked loved ones to look, only to find nothing there. Several members identified this as a nerve-related symptom, often linked to MS or fibromyalgia, and shared that medications like Lyrica, Gabapentin, and Hydroxyzine have helped, along with warm baths, CBD balm, and staying cool. A recurring theme was the comfort of knowing others share this frustrating symptom, with many saying the community helped them feel less alone and less like they were 'losing their marbles.'

I have them too. I found a CBD balm with an essential oil mix for fibromyalgia that helps to stop the feeling. Also since I have well water I use a detox shampoo it help the itch. I read an article that a woman uses apple cider vinegar on her hair and scalp to help

Besides the traveling itches, I also feel what seems like a stray hair on my cheeks or forehead. Constantly wiping to get rid of what isn't there.

I've yet to try cannabis, I bought some chewable sweets I did that have cannabis in them but I haven't tried them because I read on the ingredients that there is a lot of sugar they have sugar in them and I don't like to eat sugar.
