Pins & needles - stress related
Posted , 3 users are following.
I had a viral infection about 6 weeks ago, also had pityriasis rosea. Towards the end of the infection I just felt generally weak and tired, but although the rash has disappeared completely I still have a weak feeling in my legs. I occasionally get tired quickly at times but I am more concerned with the fact I have been getting pins and needles for over a week now and occasional pain down my right arm.
Has anyone ever had any after effects like this following a virus. I have never had anything like this before that has lasted so long! I have read a couple of forums where people think it could be the start of MS but I am really hoping that it is still part of the virus or could it possibly be stress related š š

I thought I would give it a couple more weeks as people tell me viruses can last at least 2 months. I do often worry about things but try not to let it get me down too much as I know stress can cause all sorts of things. At the moment I am fairly positive and keeping my chin up but I expect things just have there way of getting out š

Hello Lisa,
I just went through a month's worth of pityriasis rosea. Although the rashes have gone, I am starting to feel pins and needles around my body. I'm curious. Has your condition improved? Was it related to something else?
Thanks, hope all is well.

Hi axel
I first had PR in 2010 and ever since every time Iām overworked or stressed the pins and needles sensation and muscle fatigue comes back but no rash. Pretty frustrating 😔
