Hi,I,for about 3 yrs, I had a complete numb spot on the top of my right leg,above my knee on my muscle,almost to my waist,ever since then,weird things have been happening.I can stoop down for a minute or so and my ankle will swell,get up, get a little black in the eyes,like blacking out,and the swelling will go away.It seems as though I am losing moto skills,what should I do?I have already lost a part of my left arm function?
I'm sorry I saw someone post a question several pages back and thought I linked my question to that post. Wanted to know what that individual's experiences with this was. Thank you for the information again.
Hi, you asked this question on another thread

and I gave you an answer also. Did you have more questions or just want to hear from other people? Jen is right. You can certainly have that kind of paresthesia in MS.

Hey, KJD...
Electric shock sensations are caused by nerve disruption. If you have nerve damage, then you'll get electric shock sensations in your extremities - at least the ones connected to the nerve.
So yes, definitely you can get those sorts of sensations with MS.
For three months, I could hit my wrist and my whole arm would feel like I shocked it, and then it would go numb. Now if I pop my wrist, I get the same sensation.
