My brain tingles when I take my meds. I thought it was strange - my face and nose does too. I'm being treated for Babs.

The weird feeling in my brain is like when your foot is asleep feeling, it tingles . It is not as bad or numb like when your foot gets asleep. I don't know, I feel lousy symptoms everyday, it is always different. Just hoping the drugs are killing this bacteria. Jenin

I have weird feelings in my head once in a while, too. I don't know if I'd call it "tingling" but it's like a weird uncomfortable twinge-y kind of feeling.

I've had a tingling like you describe on one side of my head in one spot. Feels like it's in the brain. Rarely I get a very painful sensation in the exact same place that is very sharp and pulses for probably under a minute. I've had to pull over to the side of the road because it renders me unable to function. It is about the most painful sensation I've ever had and that is saying a lot since I've had some pretty severe pain at times over the past 20 years. Most of it muscle related but I also have the ringing in the ears (better since I started treatment).
About 6 months into treatment I got that tingling sensation a lot - more than I had ever had it before. This went on for a few weeks. Then it went away and I haven't had it since which was over a year ago. Also no really sharp painful sensations in that same spot either.
Hope it stops soon for you.

yes, I have all kinds of brain issues...tingly brain, pressures in my head that come and go, brain fog, headaches.
I have lyme and chronic viral infections. I'm sure there is some type of encephalopathy going on in me.

I had tingling when I was taking Larium.
More often though I have sharp twinges, usually after exposure to a cell phone in use.

I have lyme encephalitis and my experience with this tingling, twinges and pain is nerve related. It does feel like it's my brain but through many doctors and neurologists and neurosurgeons, I have peripheral nerve stimulators on three sets of nerves in my head. This way I don't have to take any pain meds, and my pain is under control.
An extreme end case of the tingling, but that's how mine all started. And it is in one side of the head or the other. Sometimes, both at once, but usually one side or the other.
Don't know if this helps anyone, but FYI, maybe TMI ;-)

Hmmm.... I don't know if it's really "tingling" but I've certainly had squeezing, crackling, and moving-pressure-like sensations in my brain, face, and ears. It's a bit disturbing sometimes.

Only another Lymie would know what you are talking about.
It was such a strange sensation for me, I finally started asking nonlymies if they could "feel their brain".
Of course I just got the "are you nuts?" look-but we know better.
