Pain

Hey everyone, I was diagnosed with MS in December 2024 so I am still new to everything. I have a question when you feel those sharp pains shoot through your body what do you do for the pain? Also, does anyone else experience their feet getting extremely cold?

Pain or dizziness

Hi, I've been having stiffness and pain in my neck and shoulder area, my ms neurologist prescribed me Baclofen but it is not helping at all. I'm in tears writing this, can I take more pills or should I go to the e.r? Idk what to do but it hurts so much.
