Members confirmed that the needle-like pricking sensations in fingers, toes, and random body parts are common fibromyalgia symptoms, even without diabetes, and many shared that they also experience these sensations despite taking gabapentin. Several members mentioned neuropathy in their feet, the importance of vitamin B, and upcoming or past EMG nerve tests, with some recounting frustrating experiences of doctors dismissing their widespread pain as simply lack of exercise or refusing to acknowledge fibromyalgia as a real condition. A recurring theme was the unpredictability and annoyance of these sensations, the difficulty of being touched when they occur, and the shared determination to keep advocating for answers despite dismissive medical responses.
