    What's crawling on me
    Nothing is crawling on us. Google the word "formication"
    The sensation is caused by damaged nerves in your body.

    Three days on 100 mg of gabapentin or five days on
    Prednisone will eliminate the sensations.

    The word is formication. Tell your doctor about this and tell your pest control companies about this.

    A new word for me, and thanks for the info, but hundreds of people ask here every year about actual living crawling or burrowing insects that really ARE on or in the skin. So while I'm glad that you found out what your condition is, please don't tell the whole world that it applies to them.
