Yes, I get them in my head, my sides and my legs. They come and go without reason. I just figured it was part of fibro.

Yes I get them in my head- mostly right occasionally left side. I have had an MRI of my brain and nothing unusual. I also have migraines and while these stabbing pains don't develop into migraines I have wondered if they are connected since migraines can cause shooting pains too. I have also been woken up by them.

YES I get pains like lightening going up the back of my head on both sides. Its usually one side or the other,Ive had MRI s also and they came out normal except I have arthritis in my neck. I did notice when I was on gabapentin they went away,but couldnt stand the side affects .They got so bad one time my Dr. gave me a nerve block.

Yes I do various places the side of my head that the migraines occur and my right calf and ankle and great toes. It is brief but enough to to make me stop and take notice and wait for it to pass
