Hello everyone,

For the last 3 years I have experienced tingling sensations in many different parts of my body every day. Occasionally I feel pin prick and hot/cold sensations. I have seen many different neurologists including one at the Mayo Clinic. I have had many different tests, and all results were normal. I was told that my symptoms are probably due to my central nervous system losing its ability to filter out extraneous signals in my peripheral nervous system, possibly due to stress/anxiety. I was also told that it would probably habituate over time. I just recently started getting these awful burning sensations in my hands. I started taking Cymbalta that my neurologist prescribed and Metanx that my primary care doctor prescribed, and the burning sensations have decreased substantially, but sometimes my hands feel very irritated and the tingling has not gone away. I asked the Mayo neurologist if he could recommend any supplements and he said he could not recommend any because they are not regulated.

I hope that some of you will be able to give me advice on whether or not there is anything I can do to get healthy. I am 26 years old, and I was supposed to start medical school this year, but I decided to defer for a year in order to attempt to find the proper treatment for or resolve these health issues. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
