I can relate to the feelings on your leg. Its called "altered sensation". Its not really numb but feels numbish. I likened it to feeling like I was wearing a rubber glove or something. I could feel, but the feeling wasn't correct.

As for the other things, I can not relate. Might be wise for you to keep a detailed journal of how you feel so you can judge time and space.

Just keep hanging in there and try not to get too discouraged. If there is something wrong, it could take a long time before the moon and the stars line-up just right.......and you find out what it is!

I notice that one of the things that could cause Terry's nails is hyperthyroidism. That might go with your feeling of adrenalin rushes. I assume you have had your thyroid tested.

Best to you,

Hi Ann


Yes. I was tested for that too sadly. . but thank you though!

My hope is that someone logging in here at some point may have had what I have. One can hope.

YES!! It's an altered sensation. It's like the feeling isn't accurate, exactly!! Thank you!

My guess for the problems that occur when blow drying your hair is a psuedoexacerbation (http://www.sharecare.com/question/wh...iple-sclerosis). Like a temporary flare brought on by heat.

MS is so frustrating, isn't it? Sorry this is happening to you.

Actually....your adrenalin attack may be an anxiety issue. Close to my initial diagnosis, I was having the same type of thing.
It seemed to come out of no where. I also had sudden attacks of phobia....like driving across a bridge or heights.....something I never had before.
Much of it went away....but some remains. Its like a free floating type of anxiety.....hits you anytime or place.
I personally think it came with the MS.
I take a low dose Ativan (.05)

If you are feeling the "flight or fight" response......its anxiety
Mine is not real bad like a panic attack......just what I would call "hyper awareness"
