I was prescribed Gabapentin, not even from my neurologist, but my sleep specialist for restless leg syndrome. Supposedly it helps with nerve pain too. I sleep well now, Good luck and well wishes, @A MyMSTeam Member!

Yes. Usually the electric shocks are pretty quick & although they take my breath away, they resolve within 20-30 secs. The pins & needles can last much longer & those happen anywhere on the body, but mostly extremities & face. The electric zingers are usually just down my neck/arm or sometimes my leg, & always left sided. My left side is my problem side.
