Relapse??

Hi everyone I’m new on here so go easy on me! Was diagnosed in April last yr and started rebif in sept. my left side is affected by the ms, my walking is awful and left hand doesn’t always do what I want it to, That’s the norm for me but the last couple of days I’ve been numb in both legs and hands. Can still feel them but when walking its like my feet aren’t touching the ground and pins and needles in my right hand if it touches anything. It’s the strangest feeling . Is this a relapse or is this just normal? Any advice would be appreciated L xx

Hi, and welcome to the site…

Sounds like a relapse to me as you have been experiencing new symptoms for the last couple of days. Would prob be worthwhile phoning your MS nurse on Mon - not necessarily for treatment but so that this can be recorded in your notes.

Take care, Carriex

I agree. If it’s new symptoms and lasting 24 hours or more it is probably a relapse. Give your nurse a ring, I find mine so helpful. Good luck

Could well be a relapse, but do get checked for a UTI at your GPs - they can cause all sorts of weird things to happen and they aren’t always obvious :frowning:

Rebif isn’t at full effectiveness for about 6 months - drat! - but hopefully it will help to reduce how bad it gets if it’s a relapse.

Good luck.
