lhermite's?

Hi everyone,

I  get a buzzing feeling in my hands when/if I snap my head forward as if I'm being Genie in "i dream of genie". Is that Lhermite's? When I just put my neck down to my chest it doesn't happen. It has to be an abrupt movement. (i'm probably going to give myself whiplash doing this so much but I'm getting kind of worried about it)

I have only minor sensory symptoms such as tingly right leg and burning skin. No vision problems or balance or weakness.

Lhermites is distinctly caused by bending the head forward and down to try to touch chin to chest.  Suddenness is not the key.  The effect is to send that "shiver" down your spine and possibly into your legs.

Also this condition is rarely seen early on in MS.  Usually other symptoms will lead your MD in suspecting this.  The "jerking" may be the cause of this and possibly normal.  Your leg symptom is more of a concern since its constant.  Give your neck a rest.
