Anyone Get Brain Zaps, Brain Contracting Sensation?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question ๐Ÿ’ญ
Scotland UK

I've recently been getting zaps to the brain, like my brain has contracted all over for a split second with a bit of a whoosh feeling. I really hate the sensation, it's making me anxious so I'd just like to know that other people can relate so I can stop worrying about it. Anyone, please?

That sounds a bit like what happened when I tried Pregabalin. It was like I could feel neurons firing in my brain - horrible feeling. GP said it was an adverse reaction to Pregabalin and took me off it straight away.

I get two kinds: 1 from small fiber neuropathy (pricks and intense ones) all over body including my head, and 2. Ice pick heaches both suck; not sure if this is the same as what youโ€™re talking about. I figured itd be good to share incase of ruling out or potentially giving it a name etc.
