Re: Lhermittes - any experience?

[Guest guest]

I have this and when I look down or in certain directions in a strain I get an electric shock down my spine and into my right arm and down my right leg. That is what Lhermttes is. An electric shock when looking down. It is also known as the barber shop syndrom. You know, when your barber tells you to look down so he/she can shave or cut the hair at the back of your neck! Thought that was cute when I first saw that as a nick name for it. Anyway, they real description is the electric shock when looking down. It should only last a few seconds or so. Mine are very strong at times. I hate them when they are strong because it usually means I am in for an attack! I have these attacks in my left side that aren't explainable yet and when my left hand tingles strong the Lhermittes is strong then I know it's coming. Anyway, hope this helps.
