tingling

I have RRMS, recently diagnoised and am about to start on DMD. My concern is that the MS is not active, yet my legs and feet tingle/buzz/grinding feeling after walking and in bed. After walking I sort of get, but why in bed when at rest. Does anyone know?

Urinary hesitancy is one of my everyday MS friends :-) It can take a while to get going and can be an effort to keep going. I don't always empty my bladder completely, which can lead to frequent bathroom visits.

I take the max dose of Flomax (tamsulosin). Its primary use is men with enlarged prostates. There is nothing enlarged about my prostate, but MS seems to be telling it that it's 90 years old :-)

I'm not sure if Flomax works, or can be prescribed for women though..

Thanks Kyle. I had optic neuritis 14 years ago and looking back there were little things but as you say, your not aware its MS. The neurologist said that because I have six lesions on the brain and one on the spine that the MRI shows, I have had MS for some years. looks like some unwanted friends are here to stay lol. Thankfully they are symptoms that are more annoying than anything else. Here's another question for you, when I initially saw neuro, I needed to urinate frequently, but lately it takes me a while to be able to urinate and first thing in the morning, its a very flow dribble which I have to really push to get out, even though I have had to get up a few times in the night. Any ideas what's going on. Thanks

Hi Ghost -

Although you were only recently diagnosed, it's likely that you've had MS for a while. It can often be years between onset and diagnosis. In my case it was 20 years, during most of which I had no idea anything was wrong. While I was living in blissful ignorance My MS was slowly progressing. Little seemingly insignificant things like tingling hands or feet became part of my life.

Your MS is active all the time. Generally speaking there are 2 kinds of MS symptoms, those associated with a relapse and those we have every day. If you're just coming out of a relapse it may be hard to tell which is which. Only time will tell.

Sorry to hear about your diagnosis i too have been recently diganosed with RRMS and i too get the tingling/buzzing/cold feeling in my toes in fingers and recently have started getting it around my back towards my bottom area mainly when i get up and walk and then sit down but also upon resting..

It does settle down after a while..

I'm not on any DMD as of yet but i thinking this could be one of the symptoms that will be around all the time for me.. and i think i will have to get used to it...

I hope it settles down with you and you come to some understanding with it. i know i'm starting too.. x

I just thought the tingling / buzzing / wet / warm / cold sensations on my legs were more pronounced @ night in bed because I didn't have anything else distracting me.  So I wiggle my toes, sometimes sort of rock myself to sleep - anything to distract myself from my legs and arms and sometimes face doing their wild things. !  

I just figure that stuff is there all the time but don't notice it.....

My feet do the same in bed... All other times I can make an excuse for (like the sitting on the uh humm toilet.. My feet go numb.. Make sense ) but lying in bed and numb feet... I don't get it either...

Hope someone else gives us insight :)

I do have many tingly numb problems though ... Like lhermettis sign.
