Every day I seem to be experiencing more symptoms. It started in my feet, but now the tingling sensation goes up my lower leg to the mid-thigh area. The sharp electric shock pains in my feet are becoming more severe and frequent. I think the thing that worries me most is that my hands feel cold and numb now with the tingling going up my forearms to just above my elbows. Has anyone experienced these symptoms "moving" from the lower extremities to the upper?

So ready to find out what is going on with my body!
Yes. For me extended tingles=new P/N area in time, it kind of sneaks up on you. eg before it started in my hands , my hands would "tingle' on bad days.
now the pinky and ring finger tips are actually red and numb with burning.

I now get 'tingles" up my arms only very very mild but...
