Thanks Hun..that's helped.. Yeah I think once next week is over with I will be fine:) Xxx

You've just had me in fits of laughter!!! :)))) xxx

I have had muscle twitching and pins and needles for over 2 years. I have seen a neurologist several times and he can't find anything wrong. Basically once we get these symptoms we focus on them and so does our brain because we send messages to our brain. Anxiety is one of the main causes, and the more you worry the worse the symptoms will be. Hope that has been of some help. Take care

Yes i get the tingling in my lips, fingers and feet, so annoying but i seem to be getting used to it now. I've read that it may be caused by shallow breathing. I've got the tingling in my feet now as I'm typing so don't worry its the horrid anxiety thing again so just relax and have a nice evening. hugs x

I get pins and needles if I have my wrists bent for a while - for me it is carpel tunnel syndrome but I can control it by keeping the wrists in the right position now that I know about it - and have done for over 10 years - so it doesn't always mean operations.
