Hello!
I'm currently in a period of collecting a list of symptoms. Thankfully haven't had very many episodes this year yet, other than a numb fingertip, and numbness of the balls of my feet that lasted a month or so. I won't be upset if me having barely any symptoms this year means my suspicions of MS are wrong, but I won't know until I do I guess.
To the point of my question, I had a brief event the other night that woke me up with a burning right leg, and numb fingers on the right hand - and I don't know whether to add it to my symptoms list because it was only a few hours.
It could've easily been a pinched nerve, I had no neck or hip pain but that doesn't have to mean anything, I had my body pillow between my legs and the right was on the bottom so that may have done it. I do also have a bad habit of sleeping on my arm, but the whole arm usually goes numb.
Anyway, if anyone knows the answer to whether flare ups can last a short time (a few hours) let me know and I'll add it to my list.
Thank you!
