This weeks mystery symptom...
« on: September 10, 2019, 07:03:54 PM »

Evening All

For the past couple of weeks I have had the sensation of burning skin along my abdomen.

Initially I though a too tight dress had been rubbing

There is nothing to see just feels as though skin is burning randomly throughout day.

I am sure I have heard of crawling sensations on skin but burning?

Trust me to have a variant ….

Yes !

It does indeed feel as though I have been sunbathing in a bikini (perish the thought)

I think I recall something similar many years ago when my c section scar was healing.

Feels very odd though.

HORMONES  >:(  ::)

One evening this week my appendectomy scar itched like fury, I put 'Nivea' cream on pronto, it was the tube that was the nearest.  Eased it.

Maybe do some gentle massage of the area with a good cream, it could be that as oestrogen drops off muscles may become lax which might cause those sensations.

I get it across my back and upper arms. And the front of my thighs. Mostly late afternoon and evening across my back. My thighs heat up when I'm in bed.
Thought it was just me  :'(

Don't let the over-head helicopter see, they might think that you are growing cannibas  ;)

I love the way this forum reassures and normalises all the strange things we are experiencing.
