Twitch & skin wiggle

In the height of a flare up and as the inflammation resolves, I develop twitching just under my skin (belly and legs). It feels like vessels wiggling or quickly wiggling just under the skin. It happens most often when I am trying to sleep. My doc doesn't have any suggestions. Do any of you experience anything like this?

    1. Hi , I can hear how uncomfortable you are. I am wondering if you are having the feeling of formication, which is the medical term for the sensation of tiny bugs or ants crawling under your skin. I am sending you an article with further information about this. I hope it is helpful.
