Kitty - I have numbness with pain along with cramping in both my feet and hands. It's something that is so hard to explain. I have had the same tests done over and over on my hands until my neuro just said well, it's the MS, nothing else. I take Nortriptyline to that does help my hands just a little.

I don't know Kelly . . . but for me it is best to just rest my hands when they are like that.

Thanks, Char! It's good to have you back!!

The itching on my left arm has gotten better.....seems like it flares up in the evenings. Maybe using my arm all day has something to do with it.

This disease has so many strange sx. Hard to differentiate what's MS and what's not.

I hope you're doing okay. Don't overdo it with school and everything. I've learned that you just have to let some things slide sometimes. It's not easy to do.....especially when you're a "particular" person like me!
