Odd Sensations?!

Strange question! Does anyone else experience what I can only describe as "odd sensations" to their skin?

I've had it all day today, like a tingling sensation to the left side of my head & face. It feels 'odd' when I touch it, almost like its gone to sleep, feels verydifferent to the other side when touched!

I've had other "patches" of it happening too, on different occasions. Parts of legs go "shivery" but only for a minute or two, not all day!

Anyone else experiencing this and what is it, nerves tingling or what?

Thanks 🤔

Often and completely random as to where! I’ve just assumed it’s another misfiring of my crappy MSA nervous system 😁x

Yup, I’ve had this and it’s often only on one side, you could almost draw a line through the centre of your face/head and the sensation never crosses that line, it’s like pins and needles sensation.
