Numbness in my legs

Hello all I've had numbness in both my legs for past week now, spoke to my ms nurse but she has just said see how I am until I see the neurologist in 2 weeks. Last time I saw him I asked to be put on medication but he said I wasn't bad enough yet?! It's made my fatigue even more worse then normal, it's been too hot although it's been mild today. Has anyone got any tips for the helping with numbness I'm trying to rest as much as I can. It's getting painful.😭

Do you mean that you're not on any DMT's yet? If that's the case, please find a different neurologist. There isn't a whole lot you can do, but try hot or cold packs, menthol-based pain-relieving creams, and elevating your feet. If you're in the midst of the British heatwave, soaking your feet in cold water at random intervals during the day might help a bit. I use a hot water bottle on my lower back every night to ease the pain in my legs. If I don't use it, everything's worse the next day. I don't know if it would help the numbness, though.

Sorry to hear, I get numbness I don’t no what stops it. You must see your neurologist and start on some treatment. Or find another neurologist like what Noras mum said. All the best SJ.xx
