Thank you. I have been trying to be calm about it. I haven't told many people about this--- I am afraid to worry them. Thank you for any input.
Don't jump to conclusions. There are tons of things that can cause that numbness. I have had a numb patch on my calf for a year and a half now, and was just talking to a friend of mine who said he has a numb patch on his back. We can really freak ourselves out when we read about all of the symptoms of something like MS. It is good to see your doctor - if you are not required by insurance to be "referred", I would see a neurologist for this sort of thing. Chances are, you're fine.
Welcome to our little virtual family! You will find help here. I personally cannot really answer your question, but I can tell you that I have strange sensations on my scalp - wet spots, tingly spots, pressure spots. I do not have a diagnosis, so that is not very helpful to you, I know, except to know you're not alone.
Hang in there. Help will be along soon.
