Tecfidera weirdness

So I've been on Tec for 6 months now, going quite well, been lucky with no side effects. However, for the last couple of month, in the afternoons I tend to get slight tingles on my face, and also random hot patches on my left foot and leg. Because of the timing, I am inclined to think it could be the Tec but not sure. It doesn't hurt or anything, just feels strange.A ny of my Tec compatriots experience similar? Thanks all

@vixen , if this is a new set of symptoms, i.e. not experienced by you before, it may be worthwhile running it past your MS Nurse. Unless, you're "running out of steam" at this time in the afternoon..........

Hi @vixen I've been on Tec for just over a year and I get the tingly face too. On one side, from the corner of my mouth outwards to my cheek. Like you say, it's not at all painful and usually comes on at the same time, in the evening while I'm relaxed, about 11 hours after my last dose. No hot patches though.
