Weird Tickle

Lately one leg or the other from time to time will feel like a fly or bug is crawling on it. When i look down, there's nothing there! It's happening every day but only once in a while.

Am I crazy or does anyone else get this?

My list of symptoms just keeps getting longer and longer the longer I'm gluten-free....

I get that every so often in both legs. I have to get up and walk around and it seems to help. Don't know if it's celiac disease related or not, but it sure is annoying. <_<

There is a medical name for this which has escaped me for right now. Those of us with neurological damage know this feeling well.

it's not just a tickle with me... my entire left leg feels like it's got spiders crawling all over it and then it will go painfully numb for hours at a time. This has been going on for about 6 years now and it's really annoying.

In small "doses", that's actually a perfectly normal feeling. If it's overwhelming and distracting from your normal life in how often it occurs, then it's worth talking to your doctor about neurologic problems.

I get that feeling all the time. Also, I also get another sensation of hot water being flicked on my legs......

      Thank you very much!

      Thank you for the warning. I get blood tests twice a year to check where I stand with the vitamins I regularly take, so I appreciate the extra reminder. I know some vitamins don’t build up but now I will watch the B6 for sure.

      I think you would do well to take a high potency B-complex such that you get more balanced dosage across the spectrum of B vitamins. They work in concert.

      Around 5 years ago I visited Tokyo, and luckily had my sister in law with me who is from there, otherwise it would have been more difficult. The bottom line is that there are tons of naturally gluten-free food options there, but you need to be able to communicate your needs to restaurant staff. Here is a gluten-free restaurant card for American visitors in Tokyo. It includes a request for a gluten-free meal and mentions common gluten-containing ingredients to avoid, like soy sauce and miso. English: Thank you. Japanese:   You can also download the Google Translate app, and besides being able to help you speak with people there about this, it has a camera app that translates Japanese text to English in your camera, so you can use it when shopping in a supermarket.

      Be careful about how much B6 you take, as it can cause issues if you take too much of it over time.
