Unhappy Need Help For Numb Fingertips

Hi Friends,
I am still having trouble with my extremities being numb. Moving up from my feet and fingers into calves and forearms. I have read that MS does not directly cause this...but, I don't understand what is causing it. My neuro is aware of it, but doesn't really comment a lot on it. At first he thought it was after effects of my spinal fusion. But then when I went back I told him it was getting worse and he didn't really comment a lot on it.

Any ideas what could be causing this and is there anything I can do about it. I fear what might happen if it just continues to get worse. Right now I can still move my fingers and toes, just can't feel much when I walk or use my fingers like for typing, etc.

Any comments from my wise neuro friends would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
