Thanks Mrs D.

I've had parasthesia as part of my migraine auras quite often. It is transient and always in the same arm. The feeling I have in my finger and toe now is like a buzzing when I press on it, like it's partially asleep.
What's the difference between this and neuropathy?

Like I say, I don't have much pain right now, but this has happened before when I've hardly moved around for a day or so. I'm under no illusions that it's gone.

I went for a short run last week. My foot didn't hurt, but I had pins and needles in the toe for 10 minutes after I stopped. Same thing happened after a long walk a couple of days later. I thought that was symptomatic of PN.
I'm confused. My symptoms are erratic but progressing. It seems like I can't win. If I'm active I have more pain, inactive and I have parasthesia.

I am on Seroxat (Paxil), 20mg. I was on it 7 years ago and didn't notice an increase in my muscle twitches then. I had a particularly annoying one yesterday that seemed to be in my intestines rather than a muscle, very odd. I notice the one across my mouth more often when I'm in bed.

If things stay as they are, it would be irritating but easily copable. Like I've said before, without a diagnosis, my mind is in overdrive. I'm fluctuating between anxiety driven conversion disorder at best to MS/ALS at worst.
PN is most likely but that doesn't stop my obsessive fretting.

PS If anyone thinks my symptoms are of something worse than PN, please don't share. I was merely illustrating my mental state...
