Thanks all for your replies. This all started a couple of years ago with numbness in one toe, and slowly progressed to this. But this is just scary. What' s next, how far will it go and how fast will it progress.
I have just started Lyrica and take 450 a day and will up it to 600 soon. the jelly knees is a new one, and am wondering how much the RSD is a contributor to all of this. I will try those stretches. Thank you. I'm having an MRI at 4:30 this morning. So I have to stay up all night. Fun. I hope someone will be in a chat room. I used to be able to pick up a pencil with my toes, but now I can hardly bend them. Anyways that's my story and I'm sticking to it !

These problems started in the mid 90's (I've had MS for 20 years). It's gotten progressively worse, albeit slowly. I wear cheap canvas deck shoes so I can "feel" the ground when I walk. I'm still walking fortunately, and nobody knows I have MS. Tom |

I have similar problems in my left foot and lower leg ( i only have a left leg!) and there is not much that we can do about the numbness, that leg is also weaker than it used to be and i have a bit of foot drop ( an AFO helps that). I also have RSD, and knowing the insidious nature of the condition, i suspect that that is likely to be having an impact too- do you have any of the skin changes, nail changes etc that go with RSD?? Lyrica has helped me deal with the RSD, its not perfect but it is an improvement
