Thighs are Cold and Hurt

I am experiencing a lot of pain and cold in both my feet and thighs. A lot of pain in my thighs and just can't get warm. Normally I am hot from the waist up but cold from the waist down. I am taking Levothyroxine for my Thyroid and  Tizanidine for my thigh pain. I also take Neurontin for my feet and restless legs. Tizanidine works but makes me very sleepy. I hate to take drugs. I have had Primary Progressive MS for over 16 years. It helps for some reason to put weight on my thighs and of course a blanket. I have a very good MS Dr and also a neurologist for  my primary Dr.
Just curious if anyone else is experiencing similar symptoms like with the thigh pain and cold.

I take baclofen and neurontin but have noticed of late that my feet are cold and I always have a blanket if I'm on the couch or socks if in bed…..


I wish I could stay awake during the day!

For some people Baclofen works better than Tinazidine. I have been on large amounts of Tinazidine for years and hardly notice it. I have pain but not colness. I have had PPMS for almost 50 years. I tried Trileptal and Neurontin. Now I have Cancer so I am on Dilated and Fentynol. My MS Specialist sent me to a pain clinic before the Cancer. They also had me on Butrans which is a patch for pain. I do not sleep during the day. I am pretty active. I glad you have good doctors that is so important. I have a great team now. It has not always been that way.
