Re: Purple Foot!
If it's purple then it will be to do with either circulation or infection. It can imply a diabetic condition, early gangrene, Raynaud's disease or a blocked artery. It could be indicative of more serious circulatory conditions that could result in clots shifting, predict the risk of a later stroke or if left untreated result in amputation.
I wouldn't sit there and say "it's my MS".
We can't see your foot. Go to a doctor.
