Yes I do, at random times. They happen without any warning in various places. The AI response above is interesting and does sound like it’s common and it’s to do with over-active nerves…

Can fibromyalgia cause electric zaps in the left side of your head?
While the search results don't specifically mention "electric zaps," fibromyalgia can cause unusual sensations in the head and nervous system. Many people with fibromyalgia experience severe headaches that can feel different from typical migraines or tension headaches.
A MyFibroTeam member described experiencing "muscle twitches" and "weird sensations" just as they were falling asleep, which kept them awake with pain. These kinds of unusual neurological sensations can happen because fibromyalgia affects how the brain and spinal cord process signals.
The condition involves central sensitization, where your nervous system becomes extra sensitive and can react too strongly to sensations. This heightened state can cause the brain to misinterpret normal signals, potentially leading to unusual feelings like zaps or jolts.
If you're experiencing electric zap sensations, it's important to discuss this with your healthcare provider. They can help determine if it's related to your fibromyalgia or if there might be another explanation that needs attention.
