Tingling!

Does anyone else tingle with their lupus?  If so where do you tingle, how long does it last, and what does it feel like?

There seems to often be some minor neuropathy associated with lupus - that's where the nerves are involved and cause some tingling sensations - usually but not always in hands & feet. Some people have this much more than others. Mine has been fairly minor, and is definitely related to flares and/or times of greater stress when lupus becomes active. Hope that helps a bit,

At first the problem in my hip was kind of a tingling. Now it is pain so bad only a nerve block helps.

Hi!

The first sign of my CNS lupus was numbness and tingling in my hands and feet. A vague sense like you get when you sleep on your hand wrong from impaired circulation. And my feet are often burning and swollen up my ankles which is thought to be the vasculitis part of the wide and varied lupus puzzle. They look scalded and pale often at the same time. And neuro flushes of such cold chill in my bones followed by sweats of such unpleasant intensity, I am still bitter that my PCP and GYN were certain I had... 1. asthma 2. depression 3. menopause at age 43 4. nothing wrong.... because other than Hashimoto's and a pos. ANA my blood work was all normal. I was falling 3-5 times a week, yes, at work, in the back yard, and finally I went charging into the dr. to say no I am not depressed I am p#*#*&(##)

p.s. neurontin helps immensely, too and of course prednisone is my miracle cure. After trying the month long tapers that weren't pleasant, (40mg/30/20/10) I am now living on 5mg of prednisone every day and thanking God for it.
