Hi there! I know numbness is an MS thing. I’m trying to determine if what I’ve am experiencing comes from MS or something that needs a chiropractor. The numbness only happens when I’m walking around for more than twenty minutes. I’d love to hear your thoughts. BTW it just in my upper left leg.

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 and tingling

I got my diagnosis a week ago and I’m starting to question things that have happened to me which I’ve always disregarded but could have been an MS symptom. I’ve experienced a lot of numbness/tinging particularly in my hands/feet and sometimes my leg but I have always put it down to holding my phone ...

Numbness

The last week I been experiencing lots of numbness in my hands and in my feet. I have never had that before. I wake up with it it goes away after a little while. Pops up during the day. I assume its MS related. But this is new to me. Is this common?
