With the risk of being the "odd ball" here...........stress doesn't make me better or worse. No movement, situation, mental or physical disruption, change my sensations at all. The only thing that I will admit does help is my Gabapentin, it really does work for me with minimal side effects (if you call weight gain and hair loss minimal), what I mean is no considerable sedation or loss of mental function, etc...... My 1200mg. has really done the trick again on pin pricks, just feeling pulsating wormey electrical feelings and some water running feelings through the day. I only wish I didn't have to up the dose, makes me afraid I will have to keep doing this for the rest of my life, with no cause found. HOW CAN A PERSON DEVELOP THESE ODD SENSATIONS JUST ABOUT OVERNIGHT, WITH NO CAUSE FOUND!!!! (Sorry, just had to get that out)!!

I have to say, on a positive note when physical symptoms are lessened, I am helped mentally, sometimes I can even forget (for a short time) that I have acquired such a thing, and I can entertain dreams that maybe this will stop someday.........
