I've had foot and ankle weakness on and off, and spasticity too. For a while I was walking on the side of my foot too - mostly because the muscles were stronger using the foot from that direction. If that makes any sense. When I stood on it normally, I could tell that I wouldn't be able to walk very well.
I had a similar situation when I had some spasticity in my right leg. The muscle that runs along the inside of the thigh was really spastic, so to keep from using it, I would turn my foot out and duck walk.
It sounds like an attack. Celery47 I think is on to something. My sister described the foot drop that she had just like this--especially with the toe thing.
Call the neuro's office about your new symptoms.

Hi there! I'm sorry your foot is bothering you. You might want to google "peroneal mononeuropathy" and see if it rings any bells. It's commonly called "drop foot", I think. Although that wouldn't explain the facial numbness... Hmmmm. Well, I hope you get some answers soon!
Well, this problem could be from a lot of sources. Have any of your docs done an assessment? You could start with your primary and see what he/she has to say. You might need to consult a podiatrist to find out whether you've developed a structural problem, or if it's simply weakness.
Sometimes when I pull my toes toward the shins I notice a difference in the result, but it hasn't been bad enough to focus on.
Good luck in getting to the bottom of this.
