Pins and needles

Hey, I'm newly diagnosed with relapsing remitting MS, I was discharged from hospital around 2 weeks ago,but with no information of how to contact an MS nurse! I've now had pins and needles for at least a week with a numb-ish sensation,is this normal?

@gem1483 Hi your GP might be able to try and help you out. Pregabalin or Gabapentin are drugs that can help reduce the symptoms of pins and needles. They should be able to put you in touch with the MS nurse. Or call your neuro doctors office and ask to be put in touch with them. Hope you get something sorted out soon.

@lowlander Thank you! I feel it's bad they sent me home with no contact details for anybody and no information really about MS. I obviously have done my own reading,but have to be careful which information to read.Thank you for the advise!
