Being forced to walk on a leg that has fallen asleep.
Come on, is impossible
Maybe I'm weird, but I don't get pins and needles. When my limbs fall asleep, it's never painful. But as the blood is rushing back on, it's like the most intense ticklish feeling in the world. Gosh I hate it.
If I move at all as my limb is regaining feeling, all of those muscles will seize up and my brain just keeps firing and firing and firing this tickles! until I can actually feel that limb again. Whew. Torture.
Yra, the 'ticklish' feeling is what they're talking about. It's never during the 'sleep' state of the body part but while waking up.
It doesn't really feel like pins and needles, it's just a convenient way to describe nerves waking up and being very grumpy.
