Does anyone with anxiety get stinging legs and shoulders that come and go all day. Can't stand this anymore.

I can sympathise with you. It must be really annoying and mentally draining. Sounds like it's causing you pain too. Do the symptoms continue at night and whilst you're sleeping too? Have you tried complimentary therapies ie TENS?

I live in the UK you can get a pen type thing called 'pain gone'. I've no idea of cost or how effective it is as I've not tried it.

Perhaps focusing your mind on something else eg knitting, a crossword, might help.

Hope it sorts itself out soon.

It does go away at times but just it never stays away. If i concentrate on something not too bad had it for 2 years since i got a shock after so methkng came out of the blue from the past. My anxiety was out of control and didnt seek help for 8 months. Tried medica tion but then i get other symptoms. Don't know what the answer is .
