One of my diagnoses is a 'functional neurological disorder'. One of the symptoms is the sensation of what feels like little electric shocks emanating from my spine around my body including, weirdly enough, in my groin. A lot.

It's not exactly orgasmic but almost. One of the effects of that is that I'm constantly thinking about sex and orgasm.

Definitely a rare pleasant symptom, which actually seems only fair considering all the unpleasant symptoms I live with.

Tonight's bizarre symptom: the sensation of heavy pressure on my face. I'm trying to go to sleep but I keep opening my eyes to double check nobody has their hands pushing on my face as that's kind of what it feels like.
It's a bizarre one. I've had it before but rarely.
Anybody have any idea on what could be causing it?
I can't tell if it's really muscular or nerve pain.

Tonight's random symptom:
Pain between my ribs.
Cheers, body. You certainly can't be accused of being boring.

One consequence of overdoing things recently is a huge increase in twitches all round my body, and the sensation of electric shocks emanating from my spine.

I'm going to have a magnesium tablet (if I can open the bottle), and hope that will calm my poor nervous system down a bit.

Ooh and now I have a massive wave of #vertigo. I think my body is telling me to give up and go to bed.
Goodnight!

I inexplicably seem to have sudden extreme arthritis-like pain in my right wrist and thumb?!
I'm guessing it is #histamine/ #mcas related but why there and only on the one side?
Stupid body.

Today's #SymptomRoulette: very loud and uncomfortable #Tinnitus.
I've had it for as long as I've been ill (since 2003) but I'm sure it has got worse recently. ☹
Not the worst symptom by far, but decidedly not fun.

This evening's #SymptomRoulette: #Vertigo (often mixed up with Acrophobia*/ fear of heights. Vertigo is dizziness, although you can get the two together).
I thought it was positional vertigo but it often just sweeps over me when I'm sitting still & minding my own business.

*Not to be confused with #Agoraphobia, fear of open spaces

Tonight's fun symptom: overheating. No, it's not menopause.
It's histamine intolerance/ food reaction.
#MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome/ overproduction of histamine) does a very good job of masquerading as #Thyroid disease.
