I have had episodes of numbness getting worse to wear I thought I was about to have a relapse, but it never got as bad as the original onset.It just flared up from time to time. Often being tired or not getting enough sleep had a lot to do with it, but sometimes it just happened for a while and then went back down after a few hours or days.

I swear it feels like I am getting worse......my right leg the past 2 or 3 days has been numb and feeling *asleep* , just like the very first day 3 years ago. My *anniversary* of getting this autoimmune disorder was yesterday.....3 years now....my leg started to feel *numb* at the foot and has progressed to right below my knee. My other foot also feels a little numb, but not too bad. I am scared. I know if I call the neuro, he will order mri's. (of which I cannot afford right now....our insurance has a huge deductible and we would almost end up paying the whole thing....which would be $3000-$4000! )...I know sometimes you can have recurrences with TM...I guess I just didnt expert it. I'm afraid to call neuro. I'm afraid of results. I HOPE its just the weather...but I somehow I dont think so. It's not affecting my walking it just feels asleep and sorta numb. **************Get trade secrets for amazing burgers. Watch "Cooking with Tyler Florence" on AOL Food.
