Add me to this hmmm moment. I wear a Fitbit watch on my left wrist, and it interfaces with my iPhone. If I reach a step goal during the day, or get texts or phone calls coming in on my phone, my watch will vibrate, and THAT vibration sends tingling down my lower legs. Each time, I wonder how it can do that directly to my lower leg without me feeling it first go up my arm and down my spine, hip, and whole leg… I have axonal sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy. (Honestly, today I’m not even sure if it’s mono or poly or if there’s a difference at this point)

Debbie - I have identical diagnosis as you. Mine is idiopathic. Started with sensory and then about 4 - 5 years ago or so, my PN then developed further with motor PN as well. The feelings are very strange in the ankles and feet by a simple touch from knee up to the upper back. I can touch my upper arm below shoulder and heels vibrate. Most sensitive is mid area of back. Glad I'm not alone on this! No meds have helped me. Be well.
