Default pins and needles titchy eyes and involuntary muscle movement.

HI Girls,

I have been on met for two years, and i am slo on 175mg thyroxien for underactive thyroid.

I have been having pins and nesdles burning sensation and prickling feeling which has got a lot owrse with time, this started a year ago and it was not happening very often to start with but now i have it all the time.

It is ruining my life, i also have eye twitches and involutary muscle movement it feels like something is moving in my legs and my back, all of this is a lot worse at night and so i cannot sleep. have you experinced this?

I should mention that even thoough my doc thinks i just have impaired gluscose intolerance i think i have now developed type 2 diabetes.

Hi, when I 1st tried Met about a 15 months ago (1000-mg a day) the 1st month I would wake up and my fingers and feet were all pins and needles, It scared me to death so I went off it right away, and my Dr didn't argue, but also didn't explain why I was having these symptoms. Anyway I sense then went thru 2 more Dr's, the 2nd Dr told me I didn't need it b/c clomid made me ovulate?????(she was coo-coo) The Dr I'm seeing now prescribed it right away. I am up to 2 pills a day each at 850-mg. I have not had the pins and needles, just alot of BM(sorry tmi)
