But you can find ways to enjoy sex and intimacy. He looked me in the face and said it was bright red. Pay attention to the tension and accept it. It's very annoying, but not painful.
25 March 2021 19:04 #1. So weird! I saw a pain management specialist today and begged him to hear me. The electric shock feeling will often go through your arms and legs when you move your neck. Use of the site is conditional upon your acceptance of our terms of use. But I am the only 1 who has the burning plus many of the odder symptoms. When my MS gets ramped up I experience the fun Vertigo, hot pain in my left cheek (not my butt cheek lol!Sorry gotta laugh when you can), hearing loss so severe in my right ear that I wear a hearing aid and have with continued tinnitus in that ear as well(even though I am 95% deaf) and when I am fatigued- which is almost everyday- my right eye drifts towards my nose & I see double & have glasses for that. I've never mentioned it to my ms nurse or neuro because I cant explain it very well and it sounds silly. It comes and goes; but I am unsure whether I should visit the dentist; or my neurologist (who I think will just confirm that I have it). I can't look at anything to strain my eyes. I have had these bizarre symptoms for around 5 years now and they are getting weirder and more frequent. It showed a LOT of demyelination of the pons in the brain stem! Yikes. I don’t know if the exploding head syndrome is part of the MS though. I am now 72.
Not in a … Obviously, I'm not going to do that. https://www.verywellhealth.com/trigeminal-neuralgia-and-ms-2440818 L’Hermitte's sign. Neurologist says could be MS, but suggested I see my regular doctor. As a migraine sufferer, I'm sending all good wishes that you find some relief. I have extreme headaches that makes my brain feel too big for my skull and the pressure a scary feeling. Strange but if others get it then it must be pressure related? Living without a job.. That is not life.
I would appreciate any comments on this I can get. Research tells us exercise can help you manage common MS symptoms, like fatigue, muscle spasms or balance. It probably delayed my MS diagnosis by 6 years-- but I have never had a symptom like Lhermerres since. Even this morning when I woke up it felt like my pillow was wet & I felt it on my face. It’s hapenned before throughout my life. I don't get them all that often anymore. The first time I heard a very loud bell.
I have had the area around my back side of the upper teeth Numb... or very painful. Yes, I get lots of popping, painful knife like symptoms in my head. By providing your email address, you are agreeing to our privacy policy. So many weird sensations!
Does anyone ever experience the crazy eye spasms that I do? I also get the bug feelings and the feeling someone is pulling my hair from the inside.
,I had horrible debilitating migraines 5-6 times a year before being diagnosed with PPMS. I am 72 and it hasn't killed me yet!
,OMG, I have all kinds of weird symptoms. Share your experiences: Take our MS In America Survey! This community is a place where members can discuss current events and weigh in on what's going on in the world. I said to my husband " did you hear that bell"? Thank you for your honest informative posts!
,Also have an entire list of other symptoms but those were the weird ones
,Thank you for sharing NorthwoodsGirl! Scary/weird face/head sensations. Reply Delete. The tingling in head and face feeling may alternate or be combined with a numbness in head. Weird is right!
,Thanks for sharing rostand! My daughter (who gets a few minor neurological things) says she sometimes feels like water is swishing around inside her head. 0 Online. Today, I want to talk about some of the lesser-known and stranger symptoms we can encounter. I get the wet sensation as well. The short answer is yes, anxiety can cause cold sensations and burning sensations, even on the head. Thank goodness. January 20, 2010. Hopefully, they will help you bring some questions to your doctor. Too many doctors will try to treat outside their specialty and/or think they know more than they really do.
,Devin is correct, but you're right that it could be MS. Formication is also a type of paresthesia which is defined as tingling dermal sensations. I take Baclofen for it, and it helps somewhat. Seeing all the comments, I now realize how common it is!
,I have some of the weird symptoms along with the common symptoms, but the treatment that really has helped me is a sleep apnea machine.
For me the unusual sensation is the feeling that my hands are sticky, like I have just eaten some watermelon. I had two colds in the past six years. i googled it and found it was linked with ms, touch wood its not happened for a while now..... Tony.. Oh, how I wish I did not have MS.. I hear a loud phone ringing every time. If it's musculoskeletal, how is my regular doctor going to help me?
,Thanks @Rhonda.wiggins, that sounds rough! Anyway, I hope you get a MRI. Chronic tingling in the head and other areas of the body is sometimes an early symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS) in some people. Most commonly referred to as “numbness” or “tingling,” these are two of the most frequent MS symptoms for which people seek help. A person’s head weighs quite a few pounds, made up of the skull, brain tissue, and other matter. MS runs in our family, like it does yours. I was burning visiting with my family. Always consult your doctor about your medical conditions. Your head may feel it is bubbling, burning, fizzing, prickling. I also have the more typical symptoms of fatigue and spasticity. The “weird” symptoms (though really, aren’t all of our symptoms weird?). The noise I hear now is a metal noise. Everyday Health Blogs. But for the past ten years or so, I haven't been able to tilt my head back while standing without risking a fall ... even sitting in a chair outdoors and leaning my head back causes dizziness and light-headedness. Happens maybe once a year, and I don’t have to be asleep or waking up. That is how I kind of think its MS because it comes and goes.PS I can swallow fine.
,Thank you Julena, you may want to mention that to your doctor to be safe. Not hot flashes, no sweating and my legs and abs are affected. I've asked my Dr. about it and he doesn't think it is related to my MS.
,I have been getting this feeling for almost 8 years.
I had that. I just have to turn the right way and BANG.
Really Weird MS Symptoms. Brain Fog, feelings of dissociation, mild feeling of head fulness are commonly seen in someone who has a history of Sleep Apnea Syndrome. at 50 an alert young neuro treating me for migraines put two & two together and WA LA. It has never occurred in the eye that didn't have optic neuritis. I had all kinds of treatments including having all my teeth ground down so that they wouldn't clash together in my mouth.
Altered sensations are fairly common in multiple sclerosis. Certain physical symptoms associated with anxiety can cause weird feelings in the head as well. I got better, they gave me nothing for it....and I didn't get a change in my fibromyalgia diagnosis. I don't know if that is migraines or just another of my MS symptoms. About a year ago I suddenly could not get the ball to go where I wanted it to go. I really enjoyed very much with this article here. -Warmly, Donna (MultipleSclerosis.net team)
I have had the wet sensation a lot actually. Vertigo, how well you describe what I can only feel. Lhermitte's Sign was my second, but that finally petered out twenty years ago. But I also experience the bells like you do. The end result is intense squeezing and crushing feelings. And, sometimes, holding up the head can feel like a heavy task. I have yet to be actually diagnosed with MS, but my neurologist has said that it is most likely what I have.
We never went in, I just wanted to be close in case I was having a major heart attack. But the mental and physical fatigue, hitting that WALL and having a spouse that thinks you aren't trying hard enough. My point is that we are much more susceptible and need to remember that. It’s odd because it feels like hot pokers underneath my skin on my right arm only. Now imagine the consequences of such a thing if you were driving or operating dangerous equipment, it’s not only unpleasant, it’s dangerous. For me, it often happens with my legs (but this happens to other parts of the body too), I will suddenly feel like my legs are soaking wet. The wet thing!! Maybe do mention it to the nurse or neuro next time, as they might have some ideas? It feels like your head is electric. I've had exactly that, intermittently, since about 3 years before I was diagnosed. It literally burns & feels wet underneath only 1 nostril, and also inside the same nostril BUT only on the bottom, inside it. Lhermitte’s Sign, also called Barber Chair Sign, is an electric shock sensation that happens when the neck is tilted down. I had been through PT several times with no impact to this thing I felt. This is more a byproduct of treatment than the actual disease, but there is a tendency for those battling MS to get other illnesses more easily. Lyrica helped. It's not in my ear and I googled exploding head syndrome (that made me smile!)

Its inside the head, mostly when i turn my head the slightest movement. I had just woken up. I get a loud electrical ping shooting from one side to the other, like a bullet zooming through my head. The latest weird one for the past 6 months had been on the bottom of 1 or both of my feet under my toe pad area. Sometimes I just put up with a strange sensation or painful problem because I do not know how to describe it to the doctor without sounding crazy. He was wonderful and actually listened. Pffft!
Thanks so much marigoldg! It seems to be way more common that I ever thought!
,I was diagnosed abou 8 months ago. 😮(
,Hi Devin, I seem to be finding myself reading many of your articles- they are very informative to me. Everytime I put my chin to my chest I felt tingling down my spine to my heels.
