[babbs620]

Hi Everyone,
  I posted a question approx 3 weeks and of course have a thousand more. Two days the fog in my life lifted again thank god,tremors and weakness gone thoughts clear,eye pain much better,can turn and walk without hanging on to things vertigo gone, my list could go on lol. Lasted approx 3 weeks I never thought I would feel normal again. I am waited for drs to call with date for c-spine t-spine and lumber puncture. Finally my question I have pins and needles and that seems to be a major sign of ms, but the pin and needle or as I refer to it a cell phone on vibration touching me is on again off again and I dont have numbness anywhere I have pain like somebody had my spine and right leg in a ice cold vise squeezing with even pressure in those areas, no hot pain my limps leg hands in feet are ice pain is this something that people feel with ms

Thank you so much for explaining that to me!!!!! I do have that feeling and have for off and on now for yrs but never to the extreme that I have had other things. I have read so much on this forum and I have so many of these things like many people but if I can ignore I do. its really hard to go to a neuro knowing if they cant find a lesion you are labled crazy, I personnaly dont want either of the dx. I understand the cellphone  hunt when it first started with me 3 weeks ago I took the cushions off my couch I knew the cell had to be there but it wasnt! Now I just ignore it like so many other things. But this time it took me off work for 3 weeks and still havent gone back, Im trying hard not to become consumed but its so hard not to. Hopefully all my testing will be done soon and i will know crazy or ms. have a wonderful Thanksgiving and god bless

Hi there--

Glad you're feeling better!

You definitely describe signs and symptoms of something neurological going on, whether or not it is MS or something else with symptoms like it.

For me "pins and needles"  is what a normal person elicits when a limb has "gone to sleep" and is "waking up" again, and is distinct from the vibrating/buzzing sensations I get other places on my legs, where I find myself checking for my cellphone even when I have no pockets.  

When I have bad pins and needles it feels like my legs are fizzy or "carbonated,"or like the static you see when you're not getting  reception on t.v.

I have the buzzing, vibrating cell phone under my left foot, started to travel up the leg, but basically remains in the foot.
I am not dx with ms, still in limbo
