Weird pinprick sensation?

allydonia...http://chronicfatigue.about.com/od/glossary/g/allodynia.htm

I thought a spider was in my jeans-we were in a store and I pulled my pant leg up as far as I could so my husband could see it, but no spider. I've also been poked in the eye and the back. The most recent was little needles being hammered in the top of my head. None of it lasts very long, but it's so annoying. Glad to not be alone with this! Take care, Anne

Question...Before any of you guys were diagnose with Fibro , did anyone ever misdiagnose you for having dry skin,scabies, or other skin condition?

Can lupus cause the bee sting affect also, and if so what can be done for it?  Mine has gotten bad esp when I get home from work and take my shoes off for the night.I have discovered soaking in white vinegar and epson salt helps  a little. also rubbing absorbin jr on it.I am 52 years old and I have lupus.diabeates,chf.vaveluar heart diesease,copd,asthma,pulmonary hypertension,rh,severe gout osteoporsis and osteoarthritis.

Hey guys! I get the same pinpricky feeling, but all over,my body. And when i get it it hurts alot. I dont know if this is an effect of my add medication or accutane, or just my anxiety and mdd kicking in. (major depression disorder). Also when i get this feeling my skin becomes red and almost itchy, but painful. If anyone has any answers i would really apreciate it because it gets annoying when ur trying hang with ur buds and all ur focused on is the pain.

Sincerly, an 8th grade guy who would rly benefit from some answers :))))

Ah I get this too!! Generally in the evening and was beginning to think I had bugs in my favourite chair and in bed!! I will get the 'prick' sensation and then rub the area thinking I've been bitten by something however there's nothing around. I knew I wasn't nuts but sometimes the mind boggles. I'm sooooo glad to know that it's not just me. Our wiring is definitely faulty.

I got a nasty shock a few weeks ago.
I was dipping zucchini into a beaten egg, then in another pan I had bread crumbs. Kept getting 'jumping' shocks as I went from the metal bowl with the egg, to the metal bowl with the crumbs, to the frying pan. Man--they were some nasty shocks, too! A very "shocking experience"! :)

So do we with fibro just have 'too much' electricity in our bodies?

I have been getting lots of weird sensations lately:

Feeling of something between my toes
Feeling raindrops randomly all over my body
Pin prick sensations all over
stinging/burning pain (not sure how to describe it) mainly in my feet but occasionly in hands/finger and calves

cobweb/creepy crawling sensation (mainly on legs0

I also hear a low whistling/buzzing sound (worse at night especially when I wake up in the middle of the night which is frequent)

I was told I had Fibro in December and then they backed off that diagnosis and now have been told Connective Tissue disorder. The Fibro diagnosis did not explain a few of my symptoms especially the results of the Pulmonary Function Test.

I've been having vague symptoms for years (nausea, vomiting in morning, not pregnant, bouts of sleepiness) but I'm eagerly seeking an answer to my weird pains... as more and more tests show nothing, I'm starting to think it's fibro. Esp after reading these posts. Last august my fingers would feel numb/tingly for a couple hours prob 3 times that month. Then not again until Feb. It became more and more often, and since May it's been pretty constant. EMG ruled out neuropathy, carpal tunnel, pinched nerve/nerve damage, etc. I'm on vit D and B12 supplements, bloodwork is fantastic (negative for lyme, have great liver, kidneys, electrolytes, A1C (diabetes marker)). I was diagnosed with epilepsy at age 21 which is a really unusual age. I'm 31 now. All my MRIs have been normal, so no MS or tumors. My seizure med levels are stable. I'm getting more in depth testing for tick born diseases, but beyond that, all that's left is fibro. Anyone know other avenues worth pursuing?
I'm jumping around a bit (fibro fog?), but in July I started having these sharp shooting pains everywhere. It would shoot through my hip, then my foot, then my arm... it's happened in my chest so bad I almost went to the ER, up my neck, I feel crazy trying to explain it to ppl. It's the same shooting pain, just EVERYWHERE, and so sporatic, it just doesn't make sense. Each pain only lasts a split second, but sometimes they'll come for hours. Sometimes its enough to make me jerk an arm or leg. One night it had me flailing about, an arm then a leg then my arm again... scared the @(#* out of me. A few days after those sharp shooting pains started (the first 4 days were super strong, causing violent jerking, scary), I started occasionally having that bee sting sensation. Its usually my big toe, my stomach, or my back but can happen anywhere. Yesterday and today I just feel exhausted. I slept 8 solid hours, was up for 4 hours, then couldn't fight off the need for a nap. And trying to wake up from my naps is almost impossible. I could sleep straight into the night if undisturbed. It happens from time to time and its awful. Just suddenly boom, I NEED to sleep, I cant fight it, doesn't matter what I'm doing or planning on doing, I just have to nap.
I'm not having joint pain, my muscles all feel tense, my thighs always feel bruised to touch.
I'm seeing a rheumatologist next month but in the meantime, this sucks! It really helps knowing I'm not alone and I'm not crazy. No matter what the underlying cause in my case, knowing other ppl feel these weird things makes me feel better. I feel like everyone around me things I'm making a big deal over "nothing"... the "bad things" were ruled out so I should stop worrying or thinking about it. It's attributed to stress, being psychosomatic. I don't accept that, I know I'm stressed but this is more than stress.
Thoughts?
Oh, and I've become so cloudy headed, I feel like I'm becoming stupid. I feel like I'm stoned all the time or something, I've been making mistakes at work and its not good. That is most embarrassing :(

I have a feeling in my middle finger as if there's something in it. Have soaked in epsom salts, nothing comes out. Doesn't seem to have an entry point, either. At the same time, I have been having problems with my left shoulder and the muscle underneath my upper left arm. Could these things be related?

Over the past week or two I just started having some pinprick sensations on my fingers, maybe toes too. The first time I looked because it was quite intense but not painful. The last two days I had intense pain when sitting down, like i sat on a pin. I swore I must have but there was nothing there and my skin was intact. I then figured it must have been a shock. Later it happened again, the next time I sat down. Again that day, then once today, being the worst. It felt like I was shocked by a really hot needle while it pocked me in the but as I was sitting down. I jumped! Almost cried.

Don't know if that helps.

I read Mayo Clinic info about Fibromyalgia and it doesn't mention this and I don't have the majority of the symptoms they list.

Oh my gosh. I have said for years there is too much electricity in my body. Watches die when I wear them. I also can create a serious amount of electricity. Sometimes it feel like a 9-Volt current running between my upper and lower teeth that have metal fillings. I shock people who touch me on a regular basis. It makes sense when you have overactive nerves!
