I have MS and I have excruciating pain in feet and legs knees, I was so hoping this was just in my head. My legs also burn at night but cold to touch. My lesions in brain have not increased, why’s it the legs and feet

Hi I take gambibenton. I’m sure I spelt this wrong, helps me sleep nerve pain hurts . This enables me to get a sleep and takes nerve pain away

Also my first symptoms before i was diagnosed every now and again i get that even if i am fully covered at night sometimes it's like i have a leg that's not mine as they feel normal but to touch them one feels normal temperature whilst the other feels ice cold and both feet feel cold but to touch them they feel hot. Nerves are such a weird thing, also the outside of my feet are entirely numb all the time. I have never found a cure for that i try because of my family history to deal with pain minimally as long as i can function at my job i keep my pain within a level of 4-5 out of ten anything higher and i seek help as over the counter pain meds no longer work for me as years of dealing with migraines i have built up a resistance to them. And sometimes heat and messaging them can help.

Foot Pain was My 1st Symptom that led to the MS DX.

Hi 😊 i have the same issues and mine was mainly nerve damage so taking duloxetine which is generic cymbalta. Changed my life. Have you discussed this with your MS doc?
