paresthesia

Who here has paresthesia? I do, and it sucks, big time. My scalp is extra senstive, and itches all the time. And for some reason, the whole skin crawling, prickling, tingling seems to present itself at night, when I'm settling down. What do you take for this? I know I can't take it now, because of pregnancy. But I still wanna know what to ask my neuro for, when I see him after I have the baby.

" I've definitely had this symptom. Currently it's my tongue that's bugging me the most. I've also had this sensation on my backside, legs, hands, head, etc. If it bugs you at night a sleep aid helps, but like you said you probably can't take that when you're pregnant. Also, keeping your room/ home at a cool temperature can help too since we all know that heat generally makes symptoms worse for most of us with MS. Other than that I haven't had any other treatment prescribe to me. Perhaps others will respond. Take care. "
