Unhappy Ugh.....Numb Feet and Legs

I noticed my feet growing more and more numb a few days ago. Now, both feet and a good part of my legs are numb.

Feet feel almost cold. Legs are not quite as bad. It feels so strange walking on numb feet. This has happened before....about 8 years ago. This was before I was dx. It went away after about a month.

I can still walk around but have to be very careful. It feels like I'm walking much worse than I actually am.

I caught a reflection of myself in the storm door on the front of the house as I was coming back in from getting the newspaper. Why does it feel so strange when I walk....almost like I'm stomping or marching.....but doesn't really look that way? It just looks like I'm walking very slowly. My balance is way off, too, so I make sure I'm near a wall or counter or have my cane with me so others won't think I'm drunk!

This darn MS........it's so exhausting..............
