Oh my good grief! I thought I was the only one!
The horsefly thing gets to me - so unsettling. And I've just got used to my cold, tingly patches. There's a big patch on the side of my lower leg - when I'm in the shower the hot water just feels COLD on it. I looked up the dermatomes: it seems to follow sacro-iliac and lumber nerve routes. Peripheral neuropathy eh?
Thanks for raising this. Now I know I'm normal - for a limbolander ;-)

hi jibby,
i have had many episodes of exactly what you are describing. i have had sensations of cold or even wet on the outside of my right leg. i have even touched my leg and it is dry as a bone and normal temperature. i get bee sting like sensations in random parts of my body--arms, legs, etc.
from what i understand, this is peripheral neuropathy, and can be associated with many of the disorders we discuss on this board.
you can explain it to your doctor exactly how you have explained it to us. he will most likely have heard it before, and if he hasn't, i would find a new neuro, stat.
i hope you're doing well, and i hope sweet sadie is too.
best wishes,
binx
