Near whole Right side of body numbness, stiffness and weakness

Any advice on calmming down the body? Have Relapsing Remitting MS. Ms nurse says go to A&E if it gets worse and talk in a few weeks. No other advice other than anti depressants because its stress related. What has worked for you? Over a week the numbness grew from just the fingers to most of R side...

This morning I’m grateful for a pair of sneakers that don’t require double knots. It takes time to get out of the house & I (maybe we) have to work hard at SO many things. I’d describe myself as non-efficient. 🙃🙃🙃
