about your thyroid, statins, B-12 and other stuff already. So what I'm about to say does not negate this.

But:

Your symptoms are eerily similar to mine last year. In my Internet travels, I am seeing this same pattern occurring in people posting to this forum as well as the Cleveland Clinic and other pages.

I had sudden onset of: Migratory skin burning and prickling; intense skin sensitivity (wearing jeans or long-sleeved shirts hurt bad); pricking sensations focusing on my hands, especially my left; tinnitus; dizziness; jaw pain (TMJ); facial pain; fasciculations; and a whole host of other completely weird stuff.

I'll skip my long and frustrating diagnostic journey, which some members here may remember, and cut to the chase:

I got better. Almost completely better, in fact. And I did it by treating my muscular and connective tissue, which, far as I can tell, was irritating my nerves through compressive neuropathies and also producing other sensations through either referred pain or confusing my brain with a chronic pain syndrome.

I'll also skip most of my speculation about what caused it. There may have been postural issues, etc. (long computer use plus weightlifting is a deadly combo), but as I've also discussed with some folks here, there's definitely a suggestion of an autoimmune problem that got to my nerves by way of my muscles.

My ears prick up at a couple of your sx which sound distinctive to me.

Migratory burning and pain. Yes, small-fiber neuropathies can definitely produce this and we've had people on this board who had it. But the migratory pattern is still unusual and weird.

Face and mouth pain. Muscular TMJ written all over it. If you're on the East Coast, the best place to get it diagnosed and treated is at the Tufts Craniofacial Pain Center in downtown Boston.

Dizziness. In combination with your face pain, this suggests possible cervicogenic dizziness (I had that, plus cervicogenic tinnitus). Meaning, the muscles of your head, face and neck are in spasm. They are pinching nerves, causing pain. They are also confusing your brain, because your brain checks the position of your sternocleidomastoid muscles to see where your head is. If they are not functioning properly, you get dizzy.

Fasciculations. Not the first thing that comes to mind with small-fiber (i.e., painful) neuropathy, especially because these are caused by problems in motor neurons. But weird sensations are totally consistent with Benign Fasciculation Syndrome, which I had and you can find out more about at www.AboutBFS.com.

Whew! That was a lot. I didn't even get a chance to touch on my recovery regimen, which included myofacial trigger point release, manipulative physical therapy, and TMJ-specific treatments.

Anyway, it's possible something similar is going on with you. And YES, I've been told such things can be caused by thyroid problems, etc. I don't post here often anymore, but I'll try to remember to respond if you have questions.
