I only very recently began taking medication for anxiety, despite mentioning feeling anxious for almost two years to doctors... not the point though.

I've been taking 5mg of Buspar 2x/day since February 17th. Some days are better than others, but I wouldn't say it's really doing much. This week I noticed a tingling-like sensation (not pins and needles tingling but more like a restless crawling) on my face that moved around and went away when I convinced myself that it was merely a symptom of anxiety. However, last night I got the feeling all over my body. It kept me awake for hours. My heart also felt like it was racing. It wasn't until I got up and checked my heart rate on my watch that it started to go away.

The reason I came here is because I have been mentioning nerve and joint pain to my doctor for a couple of months now and I keep getting the same answer - either "Nothing to worry about" or "Monitor symptoms." I have had a clear EKG and echo so it's nothing heart-related. So I'm wondering if other people with anxiety have felt all over body "tingling" like I did last night or if I should keep pushing back with my doctor.
