When I bend forward (as if I were looking at my feet) or if I lift my hands above my head, I have this rush of numbness go down my back. Does anyone experience this?

I have recently been having a crawling numbness and now more constant numbness feeling below both shoulder blades but more on left side when I lean forward at my desk.

Hi
When I bend my head forward I get tingling down my legs...it is called l'hermittes..it sounds similar. I think it is to do with inflammation and lyme attacking the nerves.

Yes I had that also,whenever I bent my head over to wash my hair and also when i bent over to use a blow dryer.But Im happy to report that is one of the very few symptoms that have gone away with treatment(7 mo. oral)And also have severe case.So there is hope...

Marie, Emma, and Kissis,
Thanks for responding. It is good to know that I am not alone in this. I hate to hear that you are all having to deal with this. It makes me feel that I am not going crazy or that I am not making this up.
I started my antibiotics Tuesday. Today I don't feel so well. I am having new symptoms that I wasn't having before. I don't know if this is a herx or what.
I see that kissis had treatment and is doing better. Marie or Emma, are you getting treated now?
