It's good news about the negative blood test. I too have that pricking sensation all the time.That's a flare for me. Sometimes it feels as if tiny bees are stinging me everywhere all at once. Also I have described myself as a human pin cushion for sewing needles. Hundreds of tiny needles sticking me. It stings a bit and you want to scratch and rub at the same time.

As far as the neuro is concerned, I think you ansered your own question. Maybe you'd like to wait a bit and see how you go? The chicken soup & the DVD sound very nice. You can probably use a nice good old fashioned rest, and a film to occupy your mind for a while so you can stop thinking... and zone out!
