New Numbness
Posted: Sat Oct 27, 2012 2:46 pm
Diagnosed several years ago. I read the boards frequently, and have learned a lot....but just decided to join.
I have had brain, a few spinal lesions and mild optic neuritis.
The only lingering symptom I've really had is numbness. Starting in my face and significant on my trunk and legs. It has not effected my functioning at all. I just had an MRI that showed no enhancing lesions. But for the last week or so, I have noticed a weird new numb sensation on the front of my left calf. It feels more numb and heavy; and I can't describe the sensation except it feels like I have a weighted sleeve attached to the front of my calf? This is new and am concerned, but don't want to run off to dr since I just had an MRI. I am on copaxene and take a lot of supplements (D3, zinc, magnesium.) Does this sound familiar to anyone? Thank you!
