In reply to under the skin restlessness, posted by mila on May 4, 1999, at 11:46:35
> Has anyone experienced a tingling sensation just beneath the skin which makes one restless? It is an odd sensation which has an intangible quality to it but is nonetheless concentrated in areas of the physical body. It is not painful but is intolerable. I've been experiencing this for two days non-stop. I've tried stretching, but this only provides relief while one is doing the stretching. The sensation returns immediatly after stopping. Any suggestions on how to cope with this?
****************I've noticed tingling in my feet since starting the topamax. It's EXTREMELY annoying. I can't cross my legs when sitting because it's like my circulation just zaps right out of my feet within a few minutes. It is quite uncomfortable. The worst part is that once the tingling has started, getting it to stop by stretching, or relaxing my leg, seems to take forever. Another thing I've noticed is that undo pressure on my feet can start the sensation too. Massaging the feet doesn't seem to be of much help either. If anyone has any suggestions for relief I'd be :} to hear them!
