Could anyone with small fibre neuropathy tell me if this sounds familiar as i am trying to work out what specialist to see. My GP is useless and so i think i need to have a consultation privately but dont have funds to see a neurologist, a dermatologist and an allergist which is all i can think to narrow it down to.
Itchy prickly feeling all over my body, sometimes like being bitten by a small insect. other times like the skin is just burning like being stretched really tight.
Feeling of things crawling on me or stray phantom hairs tickling me.
tingling but a prickly tingling especially on lips.
when i say all over i mean all over, my scalp is the worst i would say but i get it on my eyelids, in my mouth, tongue, down my throat and of course all areas of skin.
it was better during the summer which made me think possibly an allergy but antihistamines dont work and i dont know if sfn is affected by colder weather to.
sometimes its like i can feel grit/sand on me, like when your hand have been in water too long and you can feel they feel wrinkled without looking at them.
ive tried various different hypoallergenic shower gels, changed my shampoos so many times and various other things. im at a loss to what this is. i do possibly have sjogrens which can cause sfn but i dont know.
