1. Bone deep cold with chills starting in the legs going all the way to my neck.

2. Burning that feels as if the skin was clawed off a terrible sunburn.

3. Legs and feet feeling as if they are swollen badly when they aren't. It feels as if the skin will burst. My spine feels as if it's being crushed. The longer I stand up the worse the crushing is.

4. Fingers typing words I don't spell. Words I don't even know. (They miss keys when I KNOW I've spelled the word out in my head to type it.) Dropping everything.

5. Heat and cold are actually painful. My husband has to get my oatmeal out of the microwave because 2 min of heating oatmeal makes the bowl too hot for me. It actually hurts. He can pick it up with ease.

6. The sweating when I'm freezing cold to the touch.

7. A feeling like there is an actual electric shock running down my leg.

8. Itching and bites when there are no bites.

9. Ear turning bright red and burning everytime you get warm . (Redness is visible and it burns)

10. Water pouring over my lower body. Clothes and sheets HURT!


I definitely used more than 10 words. Maybe printing these off for your neuro would be a good way of describing if you are suffering the same way.
