Does anyone feel like you have ice or something cold running through your arms?

Yes and with that can come a numbness as well as tingling sensation.
I find a soak in a bathtub with salt ease the pain. And also drinking really warm boiled water at least 3x a day . I have found this very helpful and hope you give it a shot Jayep.
Have an easy night Sal

I get cold legs and feet and sometimes feel like my scalp is on fire. I also get hot with sorting laundry go figure.

Not cold water, personally. But many in the support group have mentioned what you describe with various parts of their body.

I have had my legs feel heavy and when I would stand and start walking it would feel like sand was trickling from my hips to my feet.

Also had my feet FREEZING for a couple weeks at one point. My circulation and pulses were fine. Even wrapping them in a electric blanket didn't help.

This stuff is just WEIRD!!

I have had those same sensations and I use a lavender spray on the areas and also drink peppermint tea it cools the blood from the inside and assists with fluid retention. You can make you're own spray easily by a good quality oil added to boiled water just wait till it cools then spray away. The lavender is also a calming and soothing property.
Give it a try and have an easy day and a smooth evening. Sal ; l
