Random Appearing Goosebumps

I also have had this issue for two weeks now. It started just after I got a CT scan with contrast. I thought it might be a result of the iodine IV, however it continues to happen. I also thought it could be linked to the fact that I ate fish twice the week it started occurring because I have gotten Ciguatera in the past and whenever I eat any type of fish I get neurological symptoms (normally a burned tongue feeling and tingly finger tips). This goosebumps thing is new to me. I get it on my left leg, in a patch that is about 6 by 10 inches. It comes randomly. I’m not sure if it could be a pinched nerve or something, but as randomly and quickly as it comes, it goes. Lasts no longer than 30 seconds but sometimes only stays for 15. It’s weird. Trusting God to reveal whatever it is, but saw these posts so I figured I would post to see if anyone has heard of any answer. FND seems like a super vague answer... is that the only answer out there this far?

Hi. Other people have posted about this previously (also with pictures), so maybe try doing a search? (Though my experience of searches’ success seems to rely on what is posted in the title.) Good luck.

Hi I've just seen this I know it's been a few years since u posted but I thought I give u some insight to ur question. I suffer from fnd and ft and I also get goosebumps quite often since I've got fnd I also get tingling in my face and suffer from non epilepsy seizures. Is not very heard of fnd and alot of doctors do not understand or have heard of fnd. For a long time my gp kept telling me it's long covid then one day i got referred to neurologist and found out that's what I've got. She was telling me that there was no funding for much help with this as it has been so rare and then then covid hit loads if ppl are suffering from it. I've been on medication for it but that alone did not help me get it under control I've had to learn my triggers to prevent seizure ms happening allthe time. Mainly tiredness, exhaustion, pain, stress anxiety are my worst triggers for it. I've ended up having to quit my job as it took me a long time to find the right help and medication and I'm feared I was taking them outside too. I still suffer with it but not taking seizures daily anymore. I hope this has helped a little
