Waves of numbness and electrical sensation when moving around

Does anyone experience this? I'm not talking about Lhermitte's sign (which I also get) as it's much more widespread and not triggered by neck movement. It's usually worse when my MS is generally worse and my fatigue levels are high. Sitting still it calms down a bit, but when I get up to do someth...

Face numbness

A new symptom I’m currently having is my face feeling numb on the right side chin and lips, also under my right eye cheek area. Every now and then I get a stabbing pain under my right eye! I took 800mg ibuprofen and it went away, so thank the Lord for that! I found it’s called Trigeminal neuralg...

Numbness

Hey Guys!! Has anyone else had an experience where their foot went completely numb when waking up? I don't know ow if it's an MS thing or that I just slept in bed the wrong way 😅 Numbness on my whole foot, prevent me to lift my toes up but I seem to lift my heel quite ok.

partial face numbness

Hi, apologies for posting again so quickly! Just trying to work out if the symptoms I'm having are MS related or something else. In addition to a numb left hand with pins and needles, I've now got a weirdly numb face. But it's on the upper right hand side. Can MS related facial numbness be just part...

Numbness

I have been experiencing numbness in just my ring ringer on my left hand. This is new however most of the problems I do have seem to be with my Left side. The finger feels like it’s numb from it being cold, but it’s not the reason. Anyone else have issues with just a single finger or toe?

Numbness with a side of pain

It sounds so weird and when I try to explain it to some people, they just look at me confused. To touch, my right leg feels numb and walking on it just feels weird but the pain and burning sensation that is going through my whole leg is just horrible. No point to this post other than neuropathic pai...

Numbness

Does anyone else suffer with numbness especially in the feet where it feels like your feet are in blocks of ice? I'm waiting on confirmation of a diagnosis as the doctors are 95% sure it's MS but this numbness has been constant for nearly 2 weeks now. If you suffer with it have you got any tips on e...
