I did have to slow my career and life down tremendously and accept that this is my new normal for the time being. I'm okay with that.

If I had no burning and only had the buzzing, vibrating, tingling etc, I would choose to not take medication at all. It's a balance of managing your symptoms enough so you can still live your life. I think that looks different for each of us.
Totally can relate maddisongrrl. I really have little tolerance for the medicine shamers. They have no clue as to what a person could be feeling or going thru. Quality of life is a common phrase for a reason.

Thanks for answers. Is there a possiblity that this could be also lyme disease? And that is lasts for three months now?
I am so depressed, I had a mri scan of my head and neck (30 mins without contrast) and one day later I found out I was pregnant for about 5 weeks. ((

Glad they didn't do the thoracic and lumbar! Thats good at least.
Could be lyme or some tick borne thing. I'm trying to figure that out for me as well.
I'm sorry you have to go through this and be pregnant at the same time. That's hard. Do you have other kids?

No, this is my first I am a little bit worried if the cause is really an infection, that it might that hurt my baby too? My OB and radiologyst said that I should not worry about mri, but I don't know if I will keep my baby (
