I've seen lots of people mention various sensations they experience with LD but they all seems to get them all over the body. My husband seems to get different sensations in different parts of his body - creepy crawlies on his forehead, tickling sensations inside his skull, stabbing in his arms and pure agony in his knees. The place for each sensation never varies. Is it common to get this sort of pattern?

I'm like Scott....weird sensations on all parts of the body.
My eyes even get a paper cut feeling on them! Ouch! Posts: 2872 | From above 7,000 ft in a pine forest | Registered: Feb 2005

I just had an MRI done because of the weird feelings I was getting in my head. LLMD thought it might be white lesions, but it came back negative.
It's as if I have bugs in my skull at times. When this sensation occurs, i also get a tingling on my tongue with a weird taste.
My face and forehead seems to get flushed with little pins and needles sensations.
These occurs without any real pattern except it is worse after 7 PM.

oh yeah, that old bugs-crawling-all-over-you feeling. 2 people I know call them "brain lice"... There's a name for that specificaly, but I forget what it is. Anyway, those are all periphrial nuero symptoms. Very common especially at the begining of treatment. I had them every time I had meningitis. They went away for the most part after about 4 or 5 months of treatment.

Sometimes yeast will do that creapy crawly sensation.
The first time it started happening I watched my diet and took Grapefruit Seed Extract. It worked in 2 days.
I think it's called morgellons?

It is very common. I get them too, mostly from knots in my upper spinal area. I use a TENS unit for that. Magnesium sulfate helps the crawlies though.
