Buzzing sensation in foot

[medco]

For the past 2 days, I've had this constant buzzing sensation in my left foot. It comes and goes every 6 seconds. However, when I walk, and when I do other activities that require a lot of attention, the sensation disappears.

I seem to be getting different sensations, all paresthesia, that come and go every couple of weeks.

During these periods, I also get anxious, so I'm not sure if its anxiety or the paresthesia that's the cause.

What could this be?

I also have epilepsy and panic/anxiety attacks. I am currently on Tegretol and Paxil.

I am so sorry that you haven't had the opportunity to post.  It must be luck of the draw - It tried for about 1 mo. and then some time in the middle of the day it let me in.  Anyway, you have Lyme Disease induced MS?  I was unaware that Lyme could do that, of course, I don't know much about Lyme yet.  However, if you've seen my posts, I am going to get tested for it soon hopefully.  I was bitten 20 yrs ago and the head of the tick (in Indianapolis) stayed in my scalp for a week, then I developed lumps all over my head that disappeared a bit after a doctor removed the tick.  I grew up in WV, w/ plenty of deer and dogs/cats.  I don't know what to make of it.  Thanks in advance for any input.

Thanks very much for your response.  It did help to calm the nerves down a bit!  
As you can imagine I just hate seeing her go through this almost daily now.  Time will tell.

Again, thanks!

Lyme disease can do just about whatever it wants. Google the words, Lyme and Net, with the "and" and see what you get.

Plaques from Lyme cannot be differentiated from thos of MS. Whether it be the typical round to ovoid or Dawson's Fingers.

The blacklegged tick...has a wide geographical distribution in Ontario, Canada....

The Lyme disease spirochete...was detected in 12.9% of I. scapularis adults collected from domestic hosts with no history of out-of-province travel....

Moreover, our findings...reveal that people and domestic animals may be exposed to Lyme disease vector ticks, which have wide-ranging distribution in eastern and central Canada.

For more information, see the Canadian Lyme Foundation, at www.canlyme.com/

Wishing you the best,

Sorry to do this, but I have been reading a lot on this forum and for weeks I've tried to post and can't seem to ever get into this side of the forum.  I have made my post on the patient to patient forum under neurology and just wondering if you might take a look at my questions and provide any insight that you might have.  You seem very knowledgeable on this subject and I need some opinions.
Thanks for your consideration.  Sorry to put this on this post.
