Default I need a little help...

I dont know if this is something related to the MS.

The right side of my face has been for about a week now. I've noticed that I feel like I'm not getting enough breath. I dont know if that's just the sensation of numbness on my face, lips and nose or if it's an actual breathing problem.

Does anyone know if facial numbness from MS can do weird things to your nose or hamper your breathing in any way?

Also, does anyone know if facial numbness (which is probably from the trigeminal nerve, or it could be from C4 on the spine, which incidentally is where I know I have a lesion) Can a lesion from C4 or the trigeminal nerve cause your heart to "jump"? (fluttery feeling in my chest sometimes)

I'm calling my neuro tomorrow, mostly because of those questions, but also because it feels like the other side of my face is starting to go numb.

I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this symptom that they might be able to answer my question.

Thanks.
