I know the feeling of moving sensations. It started with my left second toe. Then it went away. When it came back, it was mainly in the ball of my left foot, with pain in my second toe. It lasted a few days, then went away.
It hasn't been until after my heart attack in Dec that it came back into the balls of both my feet, and hasn't went away since Feb of this year. it does change from day to day, but it isn't going away this time. It started to get better when I stopped drinking, but has settled in and became a constant irritation.
Like I said, some days are better than others, but I guess for the long haul it's here to stay.
I do have to admit that since starting on a B supplement and CO-Q10 regimen, things seem to be leveling off and calming down.
Don't get me wrong, I still get woken up in the middle of the night with excruciating shooting pain, but it doesn't last as long.

For people who have never had nerve problems, to read that your foot is numb, but hurts, makes absolutely no sense. Count yourself lucky and hope it never happens to you...
