For over a year now I have had tingling, needles/pens, from head to toe. If I am busy do not notice, but when I relax the above sensations come over me and not always in same area. If anyone else is or has experienced this I would like to know how to combat. I have been to Doctor and several specialists with the exception of a nerve specialist. Help please

I have this especially along my spine but sometimes even on my mouth. If you think about it fibro affects our muscles and they are all connected to parts that have nerve endings and we are particularly sensitive to any kind of nerve stimulation. I know it is a horrible feeling and mine always seems to get worse when I am generally under the weather or have tried to do too much and are overtired,

As you say when you are busy you can sort of push it to one side even though you know it is still there in the background but when you are quiet and relaxing you suddenly notice it more and I know it is a very strange sensation.x

Hi, I can relate to this. Apart from the usual all over pains, when I relax in the evening, put my feet up, that's when all the other aches, pains, throbbing and tingling kicks in... So annoying x

I've had tingling and/ or burning sensations including my face and inside my nostrils. It comes and goes - sometimes it gets better. Oddly - if I take a warm bath, it helps for a while

Pins and needles can be a symptom of low B12, so it might be worth getting your levels tested. I also had burning skin, numbness and headaches before mine was picked up on a blood test. Best wishes MariLiz
