Here Today... Gone To Hell!

For all my life. Ive had this sensation at the back of my neck, n slightly going up to my head.

Where its like a pulsating tingle and i feel chilled out. I only get this in specific moments. Most often if im being spoken to by a Dr/Nurse and they are going through a list of whatever.

This is totally random n like wtf. But im feeling it atm, n i just thought, hey this feelings always cool but i know jack about it ...lets ask the HTGTH peeps.

I've felt that too, except mine goes all the way up my spine to my head.  I usually end up doing a little shudder at the end.  I'm not sure if it does it at any specific time or during a specific situation for me personally.  It's probably a nerve reaction, but I'm not sure to what!

I don't but
maybe it has something to do with your prolonged htgth pc using?

where's annie?

I sometimes get an odd, tingly kinda feeling, but it's more in my shoulder. It goes a bit numb but then the feeling goes away.



Damn voodoo!

Stop using drugs!

One of the worst threads ever?

^I wouldn't say so. The blow-up doll one was much worse.

come on though. Im being genuine, i do have this sensation, n i just wanted to know what it was. And if it were a common human feeling.

Is the feeling itchy :P? 

i would guess it is either adrenaline related

or it might be a slightly pinched nerve restricting blood flow.

the "tingly" feeling would be when it opens up and blood starts flowing again.

I might recognize what you're talking about, is it soothing and comfortable?

ok, i'm gonna' ask......is this a feeling that lasts a few seconds?   Like a little chill?

Or is it a feeling that lasts longer than that?

I'm trying to understand this and what you're talking about, really. 

yup!

and @lyn1961 , id say it lasts a bit longer than a few seconds. Its not a chill, cause that makes me shudder.

^I must be feeling something different, because the feeling I get isn't particularly comfortable....

It's most likely a vasovagal response.  I've had similar episodes where suddenly it sounds like somebody turned down the volume, I feel like I'm floating and then the tunnel vision comes.  That's when I hit the floor and lose consciousness for a few seconds (minutes?).  There are definitely certain things that trigger the response in me but it has happened without warning.  I've been told that I get tense, blood vessels constrict and blood pressure bottoms out. 

You say this usually happens to you when you are talking to a doctor or nurse.  We call that white coat syndrome.  :P

uhh that doesnt sound normal or anything close to what mrlee described...

ok, then...no. Can't say I've felt it or know what it is.  Hmmmmm....... maybe you just get excited by nurses and doctors..... :D

haha sorry, no guns are firing over drs and nurses.
