Pins and needles
Hi guys. Since my first relapse (Jan 2018) I have suffered with nerve damage causing pins and needles to my legs and feet, my second relapse causing pins and needles to both hands. Things such as exercise and heat can obviously exacerbate the tingling making it more prominent and discomforting, but has anyone experienced a temporary worsening for no reason? I can almost feel the pins and needles radiating out of me, causing deep discomfort and sometimes worry, often for a few hours at a time. Thanks all x
Pins &Needlrs are so common with ms that's it difficult to ascertain how bad or permanent it is. Really bad ones in my left hand & arm are one of my relapse signs If it doesn't go away in 2/3 hours I know it's not just a hiccup in the system and I need to get some help quickly, but we are all so different that until you know what's 'normal' for you - I'm an old codger and have had the beast for 25 years so I know what's normal for me, so until you have the same experience, you won't know. I'm guessing that you're fairly newly diagnosed and therefore things have shill to settle down😍
Well Not for “no reason” but I do frequently, several times a week, get numbness and tingling in areas where I had it for an extended period of time before. Heat, physical exertion, and stress bring it on for me. To be honest it doesn’t bother me that much anymore. I basically just ignore it now.
