Hi. I am 36 y male with no previous issues I had my first vaccine shot before 1.5 month 2 hours later I started to get pins and needles all over my body and first days I had numnbessin my legs and arms but now they are less. I don't have motor issues or pain. When I put clothes my skin is more sensitive. I visited 3 neurologist and they said me that I dont have neuropathy and its anxious. I did Emg and it was fine and Friday I have to do MRI. A lot of blood test , b12 and allergic antibodies everything's OK. Only one doctor told me OK if you have sensory neuropathy, we can't find it, try to managed it or take Lyrica. I don't know what to do. I saw 2 psychiatrist and they told me that I am hypochondriac. The truth is that I am hypochondriac from my 16, but I am a very functional man and always I managed it. So. What you believe ; Its anxious or I developed neuropathy from the vaccine. Is that possibly;

Hi Tzolo
More questions than answers; what (and why) were you vaccinated against? Why were you prescribed Lyrica? Do the two psychiatrists you have seen have any reason(s) for labelling you as hypochondriac? I hope that you find getting answers to these questions helpful.

I was vaccinated for covid 19, I had the Pfizer's shot. One of doc that saw me, said that if you have dysesthesia , pins and needles feeling with no reason, as your exams are ok, you should try Lyrica to see how it will go. The docs as they didn't find anything in blood test, MRI and clinical examination said that we cant help you, maybe its in your mind you should see a psychiatrist. So , my thought is, can I have neuropathy sfn by having dysesthesia . Should I do a skin biopsy or its too early..

@Tzolo,
3 neurologist said you have don't have Peripheral Neuropathy. 2 psychiatrist said that you are a hypochondriac. Just my opinion- I think you should make a serious effort to resolve the hypochondria first, and above all else.

Tzolo you were given a vaccine for Covid-19 which is very common. The doctors used the confusing word "dysesthesia" which could mean anything (it is just a fancy way of saying "abnormal sensation").
Doctors have been known to use fancy non-clinical words to impress their patients before and will again.

Is there any test I can do to figure out if this is from the vaccine or sensoryneuropathy;

Tzolo I suggest that you discuss the possibility you raised with the doctor who gave you the Covid-19 vaccine.
It would be a good idea to read what is, in bold, shown at the bottom of all Neurotalk pages: Always consult your doctor before trying anything you read here.
