Is there any chance at all that the neuropathies could be caused by my trigger points? I find it hard to believe because they are all over and not just numbness, but rather water, burning and stinging.

I had a real health scare in the years before these sensations when I had some very unusual health problems which I finally discovered were caused by trigger points. Unfortunately my trigger point therapist among others lead me to people to said I had lyme disease. The antibiotics my lyme doctor gave me were not doxycyclin and I don't know what they did to me.

All the symptoms that were caused by trigger points are as follows: Jittery vision when reading, random dizziness, wobbly head feeling like I'm under water, random zaps to the head like electric shocks, numbness of the face, tinnitus, TMJ pain, temple pain, chest pain. That is just the upper body. I had some right hip involvement as well. I'm totally secure in those symptoms and they don't scare me now that I figured out they are just trigger points. No doctors could tell me in two years, I figured it out.

However, these water, burning and stinging sensations all over my body which started after the antibiotics and take 2 years to go away and will come back at any point if I have an upper respiratory infection I'm worried are beyond my ability to figure out and cure. I thought the same thing of the other symptoms, but antibiotics are too strange.

I have seen some people out there who say they have TMJ too and get water sensations all over. It would be great if it was just the muscles somehow, or maybe TMJ is predisposed with certain kinds of neuropathy which aren't visible. Then it only takes the neuropathy to get worse to get more obvious neuropathy symptoms.
