Tingle Tingle Litte TEETH?

So last night I was all cuddled up in my bed, warm under the duvet when I was rudely woken up by my lower limbs.

Yup, my toes had decided to go to a party without permission and had stated twitching and my legs were trying to keep them under control by making themselves as heavy as they possibly could to hold them from leaving on their own.

As I lay there willing for these sensations to stop so that I could go back to sleep (despite the gale force winds outside) I realised that actually it wasn't just my legs that were being naughty it was my whole body.

My arms felt heavy and my finger tips were getting mini electric shock type sensations. My face was numb and my lips and tongue were tingling too.  These feelings are nothing new but then I had the most peculiar feeling that my TEETH were tingling.




Teeth can't tingle though can they?

I think maybe I was just over-tired or maybe it was nerves in my gums having their own little boogie around their handbags (wow, check me out showing my age - do people still dance around their handbags?) but it felt so weird.

So it's fair to say that I will need extra coffee today due to lack of sleep (especially since it is officially my first day back working after the Yuletide Season) but my teeth feel weird for sure this morning.  I think they have a hangover from all that dancing!

So enough about me, how are YOU?

  1. oh the teeth... mine do odd things as well... i grew up in a family of dentists (father, brothers)... i've broken two teeth, twice each... i've suffered with trigeminal neuralgia... have been issued a huge arse oral tank to wear at night... seems us MSers tend to grind ... imagine that... oh, and i just found out that one tooth that i've broken twice is now requiring a root canal from all that damage....

    ain't life grand? ha! welcome to the new normals...

  2. Hi, I've loved reading your blog so far - you have the descriptions of how MS actually feels down to a tee!
    I had tingly teeth for the first time the other day and good grief it felt weird!

    Keep up the fantastic blogging :)

  3. Thanks, I'm fine! Hmmm.. What exactly do you feel about your teeth? Whew. That made me a bit curious. I think you should visit the dentist for a thorough check up. Maybe you had too much sugar.
