Late this afternoon I developed an annoying tingling sensations all over my whole body from head to toe. It is weird and I've never had this sensation all over at once.
I feel ok, but I can't figure out what this is. Its in my hands, chest, stomach, legs, feet, and randomly on my face.
I did however go in the tanning bed today (as suggested by my dr) for joint pain, vit D, and to prevent depression. I'm in England and he thinks it will be beneficial. I only went for 6 minutes and don't look burned. Could this be casuing the all over tingling?

I'm assuming you're on abx for the Lyme currently?
Yes, Lyme can cause this type of neuropathy. It will eventually diminish with treatment.
It 'sounds' like that's what's happening here (w/ the limited info & no exam results) but you should always be screened for co-infections as a couple can cause nerve bundle disruptions.
Whenever the sun might show it's face over there, skip the tanning bed and hang out in it... with a nice warm cup of... Green tea.
