It’s the invisible pain that is so infuriating. I know people around me can’t possibly realize what I’m feeling. I saw that you referenced earlier having the icy cold hand symptom. I find that icy cold 🥶 burning feeling to be my worst form of pain. I also have Raynaud’s ; which can turn your fingers and toes white. But I have often wondered whether MS can cause the same type of pain—-especially because my fingers never turn white, as described in Raynaud’s. I think it is temperature dis-regulation in my brain somewhere. Sometimes I’m burning so cold and I’ll take my temperature and only be at 96 degrees F. So I know something is legitimately wrong. I’m sorry that you are experiencing the pain. Sometimes I feel like coping with this pain for so long has suppressed my emotions. There are times when I want to cry—know I should be crying—-and can’t—either during a sad movie, or death of a friend or loved one, or similar sad event. I feel like MS is to BLAME for this as well! I hope you get some relief so that you can enjoy the upcoming holidays! Feel free to chat anytime.
