Nervous system problems

It feels like my body is shivering all the time and the only thing that helps is walking. I'm always freezing cold and very sensitive to any type of breeze or airconditioner.  Also have a rash (3 months) on my Stomach that comes and goes mostly stays. They did two Biopsy on the rash and both can back okay. It's all driving me crazy!!! I've had a MRI of the Sprine & Brain and tons of blood work that all came back fine. They also checked for Lyme's Disease and thyroid can back OK. I have all the signs of depession and Anxiety but I think its all due to not knowing why I'm freezing and having this electric shock feeling through my body (mostly from my Stomach up). They put me on prozac 20mg. three weeks ago thinking it was depression but I'm still freezing to death and the prozac didn't help.
Anyone have any throghts on this?
Thank You!!!

Hi,

Since when do you have this problem? Have you been able to identify a trigger for this sensation or is it persistent throughout day and night?
Is there any tingling and numbness associated with it?
Anxiety and excessive stress, high fever can cause freezing sensation and shivering. I would suggest you to continue with prozac for some more time. Meanwhile also try to relax using breathing exercises and meditation. Take care!

Hello Dear,
It seems you have been having some neuropathic condition like Benign fasciculation syndrome which is a neurological disorder characterized by twitching of various voluntary muscles in the body like that in eyelids, arms, legs, and feet.The twitching may be occasional or may go on nearly continuously. An electromyograph test is desirable to assess your condition better.
Do you also have altered sensations, fatigue, muscle cramps and exercise intolerance?
Have your anxiety levels increased in the recent past?You should consult a neurologist and evaluate the cause.
