My leg feels ice cold

[Rachelinpain]

Has anyone had the experience of suddenly feeling like a part of your body was ice cold.  Tonight my left leg suddenly started to feel like it was sitting in an ice bath.  It is not cold to the touch though, just perceived as cold.  I just can not shake th ecold feeling, the rest of me is comfortable.  Is this somethin that happens with MS?  This is my first experience with it...I do have other issues with this same leg in the last 2 years...muscle spasms and have had numbness and tingling in this leg for periods of time as well.

Hi :) I'm new here i came across this forum by chance i have not been diagnosed properly yet. The symptoms i am experiencing are:-
Every day at certain times it can come on at anytime of the day. My knees down to the bottom of my feet go freezing cold .I get numbness in the bottom of my feet and pins and needles in them. My ankles are sore and my knees feel sore and really cold .Sometimes my knees go stiff and click when i bend down to pick something up then i get shooting pain in them. I also have had it in my wrists and my fingers also go freezing cold. I have been tested for Raynauld's, have seen a musculo-skeletal specialist who told me that i have some wear and tear in my knees but nothing to worry about right now she has no idea what can be causing the other problems she thinks it could be circulation, and my other doctor thinks it's not circulation. I also have hole in the heart have had it since birth only very small hole but i was told it is nothing to do with this either i'm 40 now and it has never affected me before does anyone think it could be ms?

My bf has MS and experience similar coldness in his feet. The main difference from the comments above is that his feet are actually ice cold and his body temperature is relatively normal. Its cold by the touch. It is usually linked with his back pains. I use his feet as a tell all since he's gotten to the point of not telling me when he's hurting. I usually massage both feet til he feels better. I don't know what else to do beside that.

Chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency or CCSVI is the problem most likely. For more info you can find it on facebook or youtube or just google ccsvi.

Is this a common symptom of MS I have this a lot .  I have been sick for almost four years with no diagnosis this is one of many symptoms I have had over the last four years.

    Have any of you seen the documentary "Under our skin" about the relationship between Lyme disease and MS?  Hulu has it.
