I've been experiencing what I think is nerve pain for a week. My skin hurts all over, feels like when you have a sunburn. Barely touching my skin is painful. I'm scared. Is this a flare up?

Nerve pain across the head?

Has anyone here experienced sharp, short, painful nerve pain around the head? Had a bad cold which brought on some MS symptoms. The worst is shooting nerve pain every minute or so across the side of my head and base of head, so painful it makes ne feel sick (and I cried like a baby)!

So before I was diagnosed a hand Dr did a nerve test on my right arm. About a month later I developed nerve pain and severe itch on my top of elbow . A month later I was diagnosed with Ms . Gabapentin is the only thing that’s calms it down ! I’m guessing I’ll have this for the rest of my life? Does anyone else suffer from this? Inside of hand has what I call neuropathic itch

Anyone else diagnosed with Spinal MS? I had never heard of it until I was diagnosed a year ago. I have cists from my C1 to C7 of my spine. Causes paralysis on my right side and severe nerve pain that is like seering burning needle like pain in my left. My eyes, hearing and memory has been greatly affected too.
