These are sensory perceptions gone haywire. I don't know if I just explained that well but hey, this MS. LOL

I do hope you feel better soon!
It's such a strange sensation. I can feel pain....like if I pricked my finger with a needle I could sure feel it. But if the Neuro does that test where I close my eyes and he moves my finger up or down and I'm supposed to tell him which way he's moving it....I fail that test every time.

My brain has definitely got it's wires crossed somewhere! Now, if it could just tell my stomach that I'm not hungry things would be great.
