Flare up denial

Hi all, I'm a fiercely positive person but going to admit I'm rather scared and isolated at the moment. Numb weird feeling in thumb has seemed to have spread since last week so feeling lile this is probably a flare up. I don't want it to be and feeling scared it will get worse. I don't want to take time off work and then have everyone knowing and treating me differently. My husband is aware but dont want my parents to worry or family members. I've been living with this for over 6 years but this is a completely new symptom and for some reason it's rattled me. Hints tips advice hugs welcome!! Xxx

@ceecee1984 please don't assume its a relapse, it maybe that the warm weather is the reason. Many people find temperature affects them/symptoms and do their best to keep cool. How about contacting your MS nurse and/or team and talk it through with them. If you feel able to work then just go ahead. hope you feel better soon.

I know the difference between flare up in symptoms due to temperature which would subside once out of heat. but thanks for pointing that out .
