Today
Hello all, I was doing fine for a long time but now my left leg has started going numb again from about 9pm until 11am. I know it's weird that only happens for this length of time but that's how it is. At PT this morning, she was showing me new stretches where at one point she pressed down on the left side of my lower back. It really HURT so she thinks that my leg is going numb because of my sciatic (sp) nerve. She wrote an email 2 my neurologist suggesting that my MRI tomorrow be a brain scan as well as a spinal scan. We'll see what he says. I am SO SICK of all these issues. I just want to have NO issues for a bit. With MS, that seems 2 much 2 ask. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Shore, pain is difficult to handle sometimes. I hope it goes away soon for you. My body has been numb from my shoulders down since November. My neuro said it might not return to normal.
I hope you see much improvement soon. God bless you and peace always
Oh, no! Back pain can cause numbness and maybe the MRI will show what is causing that. I hope all your tests go well today. Take care of U.
