Quincy, IL

Yes I have migraines. When I have a migraine one of the signs is that a part of my face will go numb or tingle a little bit. Well its been about 8 days since I had my last migraine. And yes I do ha e blood pressure issues but the last 2 days it has been down and okay. Today when I bendand pick something up or when I move around certain ways. Myface will feel funny, numb or tingly. Any suggestions...

Yes I do and I was worried about it. I can it in my face head (around my brain and I know I have one they found it on the mri scan) legs and arms to. I spoke to my GP yesterday and all sensations are connected to fibromyalgia but should always be mentioned in case there is something else going on. He asked for all symptoms to be reported as all the symptoms of fibromyalgia are related to other illnesses so it's always best to discuss it sending hugs it is a horrible feeling x

I also suffer with migraines and a neuropathic condition called Allodynia, before, during and after a migraine I get the numbness, pins and needles and tingling down my left side of my face and also get shooting pains sin my head and an incessant burning in the top of my head. My Allodynia is triggered by temperature change too so get these symptoms on and off all the time and it usually settles once I get used to the change - Look up Allpdynia as their are 3 different types, hope this helps xx

I suffered migraines before l was diagnosed with fibromialgia since l was 16yrs old l started getting awfull headaches ect dose anyone experience shooting or stabbing pains in the brain l get it quite often. Also my old DR diagnosed me with muscle spasms in my kneck which would cause a headache all over my head she said to take my muscle relaxants and Co codamol l've had to stop a lot of my medication because of the stroke l had last year which was pretty traumatic l keep dropping thing's from left hand that's the only thing that's left damaged not also people with hand trouble or arthritis does your hand or hands swell up? When l've been holding mobile for instance and l'm doing a lot of texting on it the hand holding my mobile swells twice the size strange thing my hands are getting weaker as well.

I have the numbness also however I've been diagnosed with hemiphilegic migraine. My whole left side gets numb as if I'm having a stroke. It is very scary. I usually wait it out knowing what it is. If I were you I'd go to a neurologist to make sure what it is. Peace and blessings.

Yes I have this too. I have hemiphilegic migraine which mimics a stroke with the one sided weakness, numbness, slurred speech, and lost of speech. It can be scary sometimes. But now I know what it is and manage them with meds. So, I think it is a part of Fibro.
