well, that is what it feels like somedays. I feel like my underpants are filled with splinters and if I move wrong or sit badly, I get stuck. right in the cotton insert area (if you know what I mean) i cant pin point exactly which spot will get stuck but its always in the same area.

Anyone else? I find that taking my underpants off and sometimes just laying down for a few minutes helps, but I cant possibly be the only one....am i?

OUCH!

I thought for just a minute tha you and DH were playing in the wood shed again..

hay might look comfortable, but it is kind of pokey.

Seriously, I get weird sensations in that area too. Sometimes it feels like someone is poking me with a needle on the butt. Swear it feels just like it did when I was a kid at the doctor getting a shot, not as painful tho.

What I hate is feeling constantly wet in various areas down there. Always dry when I check, but sometimes it feels like someone is pouring water on me, or like I'm walking around in a wet swimsuit, even tho there isnt any moisture anywhere.

I hate the pokey feeling. Sometimes I'll feel the stab and it makes my leg jump. Hate that...especially when someone sees the leg jump. I always get the hairy eyeball for that because it looks like my leg is trying to get away from me.

Dejibo, you do get a lot of special attention from the disease.

Now that I remember, I have received some neuropathic stabs
in that area. The stabs can occur just anywhere.

Feelin' for you girl

I posted something similar a month or so ago (probably on the Braintalk forum). I was feeling electrical shocks and stabbing sensations in the same area.

Feels funky! Does it happen when you are walking too? Or just when you are sitting? I noticed it during both and if I brushed that area even lightly it went off like a firecracker.

It lasted for about a month or so, I can still feel it sometimes but not near as much or as intensely.

it comes and goes as it pleases. Feels like sharp wooden splinters are stabbing at me. then...it goes away. DH asked on vacation "why are you walking like that?" embarrassed I had to tell him. From then on, he tried to walk behind me to cover what I was doing. I told him I didnt care what others thought, just come walk with me. He shrugged and said ok. I stopped caring what others think a long time ago.

Me too Dej..

I was thinking....do I get these stabs and pains? I do, sometimes but, Ignore them, mostly. Nothing ever seems to last long enough to get my dander up.

I guess I've just learned to live with it..
