New symptoms after 40 years

I was diagnosed with MS 40 years ago. Only had sensory symptoms- numbness and some dizziness since then. However 2 weeks ago had one warm leg and then felt like both legs went to jelly and had difficulty walking. Does this sound like a MS flare up?

40 years wow what lead to your diagnosis back then ?

Sorry if this is a bit unhelpful but yes it could be but equally it could be something else. Either way it’s probably best to let your MS Nurse know and to ask her what to do

Hello @julierolph
It sounds like general muscle weakness. I was dx coming up to 25 years ago now. In these last few years, I have noticed my leg muscles are not as strong as they used to be and my ataxic gait just seems to be worsening.

Usually a MS flare-up completely flattens me and I have very little energy to get up, nevermind trying to walk but, you could well be having a flare-up. It’s best to observe it and consult your MS nurse.
Kind regards,
JP

Yes, it does. Might be something else of course.
