What does MS tingling feel like? It started in Jan in my upper thigh, outside of thigh and back of calf. It feels like a buzzing sensation. After several visits to the chiro, it stopped for a short time. The tingling returned to the top of my thigh but the other 2 areas ceased. It’s mostly constant with an “on/off” pattern. Sometimes I feel the buzzing in my shin or knee and near the ankle or behind the knee of my other leg. Those sensations last 3-4 hrs and usually don’t return. It also follows an “on/off” patterns like someone is flipping a switch. Moving around and walking, changing positions sometimes helps. And putting pressure on the tingling with my hand will stop it for a bit. I’m not in any pain, just very anxious as I have some health anxiety from having breast cancer 10 years ago (my oncologist is not concerned about this being a symptom of recurrence).
I’m just curious to know if this sounds like MS? I currently don’t have any other symptoms, maybe some muscle twitching every once in awhile. I know anxiety isn’t helping but would love to hear from others.
Hello. I’ve been educating myself about MS. My primary doctor referred me to a neurologist but my appt isn’t until the end of May. She suggested MS.
