Goosebumps On Thigh, Burning When Sweating. Taking Cymbalta For Fibromyalasia. What Is Wrong?

Ive been sick for over 2 months now. Ive been a Type 2 diabetic for 10 years. I was diagnosed with Shingles though never broke out in a rash only felt the burning sensation right side n left thigh. I was given Gabapentin 300 mg. It didnt help. Then I was diagnosed with Fibromyalsia and am currently taking Cymbalta 60 mg. This manages pain that I can tolerate when it gets to much I take Tylenol 500 mg. Since this has started the goosebumps on my left thigh in some areas are constantly on and when I sweat it burns. At times I try to get goosebumps all over but they dont on left thigh. Really strange and irritating. What could be wrong?

You have meralgia paresthitica. To cure this you should controll your sugar very tightly. Fasting sugar below 120 and postprandial below 160 . You continue trigabantin. Methycobal 1500 mcg also may help. Check your urea, creatinine and urine albumin . Check your eyes now and every year. Post ur symptoms in some more detailed.
