Getting Used To It

Been having a numbness in my hand, feet and chest for the last 4 months, it really bothered me at first but my body has adapted to the feeling and getting around isn't terrible. of course now I wonder if people think it is not bothering me anymore and I am somehow milking my diagnosis. can't win for losing I guess.

  1. Hi . I wish you could get some relief. It is hard not to wonder how you might come across to others, but you can't control their thoughts and actions. You can only control how you react to them. If you let yourself think the worst. you will feel more stressed. When you are more stressed, your symptoms might worsen. I hope you can find a way to distract yourself from those perceptions. Thinking of you! - Lori (Team Member)
