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..............

Thank you, B2Y.

Nothing much freaks me out anymore. It's happened before....years ago. I know it will go away eventually.

My oldest son told me one day that if I were any calmer he'd have to check me for a pulse!

That shouldn't be happening with LDN.. Maybe you're holding your stress in and you don't realize it.

My DH did that. He was the epitomy of calmness and yet, shaking inside, sometimes.

Feel better, soon..
