Aa
me too
i am the same have feels like i have things crawling acorss my skin its horriable but no viable signs and this is something i have suffered with for years from time to time. i went to the doctor once he said i have senitive skin and my room its damp but it wasnt. i share these symptoms dissapointed we havent had a reply recently.
the only reason i have signed up is because i have a crazy idea, do you think these symptoms are some how linked to anxiety ? i dont suffer with this genrally anymore than the next person however if i smoke cannabis which is very often at all now i have matured the symptoms become more intense like 500% worse umbareable untill i touch that area of skin.
not only that if i am stressed through work or relashionships have a problem once in a while my sypmtoms become a problem and i find it hard to sleep because of the syptoms... im not having trouble sleeping because i am thinking aboyt anything in paticular more to the point that my skin itche's.

Hello,
It is true that these skin crawling like features also called parasthesia are due to stress and anxiety.Take some antianxiety medicines whenever stressed and see if the symptoms persist.However other possibilities also cannot be ruled out.These possibilities are abnormal levels of calcium, potassium, or sodium in your body and a lack of vitamin B12, diabetes, stroke, multiple sclerosis and underactive thyroid.
If the symptoms are intens,then a neurological disorder cannot be ignored. You can take multivitamins for some time. Also get your blood sugar tested.
If the symptoms persist,then pls get yourself examined by a neurologist. After confirmatory diagnosis only, treatment can be started.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.
