Yes, I've had this. Sometimes I get the feeling that a bug or something is crawling on me. It's very unnerving at times!

It's just sensory sx. Barb, I get the water feeling, too. I sometimes get a "sandy" feeling on my hands and feet. I don't know any other way to describe it.....but it feels like I have sand on my skin.

I get these...I thought at first it was my spider paranoia. It
felt just like spider webs. I also get vibrations, wet feelings, bugs crawling etc. etc.

Sometimes I have cats hairs or something on my face, bugs crawling on my legs or scalp, and water running down my shins, calves or on my feet. I always, always have to check, because what if this time it was real?

Yes! My nose constantly feels like a hair is tickling me. The wet legs and feet feeling, I blamed the poor cat a few times for weeing on the carpet... was not wet.

I always have bugs crawling over me, hairs tickling me and a wet foot and calf.
But I'm told, if that's all I get, then it's not so bad is it?

Thanks all...I get those wet feelings, too, but this was new. Not a big deal though, right?

Same here. Since my sx started, I've had a *bug* doing circles on the back of my head. Sometimes it feels like tape is stuck to the bottom of my foot, or like I stepped in something squishy. Most are only a little annoying. When the itchies get really bad I claw myself, can't sleep. Sometimes ice helps, or benedryl spray.

Jim's been having a sweaty palm feeling lately but his palms are dry. Weird.

I get the same as you do soxmom. I hate spiders too.


Debbie it drives me nutty when I feel a hair that isn't there. It feels like between my fingers, or maybe on my face and I look for it or rub my face to remove it.

It's just our brain sending a wrong signal to our sensory nerves, skin or muscles. Our brains get a bit mixed up at times. Try to change the sensation. Dip your hand in cold water or warm water. Change what the brain thinks it feels or senses.
