Linda,
You described it very well.  In explaining the tingling/burning, I tell people to sit on their hands and feet for an hour and then try to get up and walk on glass that is on blacktop on a 95 degree summer day.  That would be about right.

Like millions of pins and needles on top of my skin.  And Neurontin only just barely takes the edge off the pain.  I don't know how else to explain it - maybe someone else can jump in here and explain it better.
