Skin Numbness

[bws1565]

DD17 commented that she has some numbness on her skin. eg: When in the shower she feels the hot or cold but not the water on her skin. This sound REALLY weird. Does anybody know what this could be?

 

DD has lyme/bart and currently in treatment.

Numbness is a symptom of Lyme that we experienced as well. We didn't noticed hot/cold however the skin has different sensory receptors for hot and cold than it does for touch and pressure.
