tingling

I have a question about tingling in the fingers. I know all people's symptoms are different, but maybe someone can help me...My fingers seem to tingle alot when there is a change in temperature, like after showers or after drinking hot things. They also tingle after i eat. Now My neurologist said that it's probably just a side effect from the meds i'm taking for my migraines. It did start around the time that i started taking it, but it has slowly gotten worse over time. and right now i'm having back spasms....but i've been having back problems ever since my spinal tap and whenever i do too much...

i have had tingling off and on in different areas.and i know mine is the m.s. because i wasn't taking anything for years that i had it.
i don't know if you have the option of not taking your migrain med(i luckily have never been a migrain sufferer) but- if you stopped taking taking it for a while- and the tingling went away-then you started taking it again and it came back-then you would know if it was caused by the med.
that's how we used to test for food allergies in one of my babies.
but don't try it without asking your dr. first

Temp. changes cause my tingling to worsen, but I haven't found anything that really makes a difference. I take topamax already for TN and seizures and it's supposed to help, but....

I have tingling in fingers, hands, toes and feet. No meds here, but I too have migraines about 1 every couple of months.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
