I am just wondering if anyone else has had any symptom like this?
The first time I had this happen in my feet I thought I had been stung by a bee. I looked and looked for the stinger and nothing was there. Afterwards this spread to my legs and arms and hands. It does feel like sticking your finger in an electrical outlet or tongue on a battery lol.

I have been told by my physical therapist to try using ice on the area when this happens to "shock" the nerves into moving correctly. I have not tried this because it is such a huge area now but if the area is limited just to feet it may help.
