Tingling In Face Area-weird Sensation
Posted: 02-03-07 22:55pm

I get this weird sensation on and off-it's mild feeling. But it feels like around my mouth(below my lips)-my lower cheeks-and upper neck get tingly-numblike. I can feel the skin but it just feels less than it usually does. I know this might sound confusion but i'm trying my best to explain it. I have been on zoloft for 3 years for panic/anxiety/depression and I also have klonopin that I take as needed. That ranges anywhere from 3 times a week to once every two weeks. I read somewhere that benzo's can do this. I've recently had a mri fro other symptoms so i'm pretty confident it's not ms or anything of that nature. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you and god bless,
leah

thats a sign of anxiety because my lips use to feel really tingly, and i looked it up and it says that anxiety can cause tingle feelings... and one of the main places was around the mouth

Be careful of this because tingling or burning sensations on the mouth or lips (called pallor), can be a sign of a physical problem. Don't chock up everything to anxiety unless you've ruled out physical problems first. Medicine, however, could possibly have this effect.
