Yes, I have numbness and tingling in my arms, legs, hands and feet. I have muscle faciculations as well as pain and burning sensation. I have to see a Neuro for nerve damage testing and vitamin deficiency. It can be a simple b vitamin thing, so don't worry yourself too much yet :)
Buspar works great for me good luck try coloring adult coloring books
