Everyone -- Pardon the interruption. I have suffered from TMS for a few years now. Yesterday for the first time the tip of my right toe began to go numb for a few seconds at a time. This is a very strange feeling, to say the least. My first instinct was to think about seeing my doctor, but then it occurred to me -- is this TMS? I have never heard of anything like this before. If you have any thoughts as to what this might be, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Hi Jeff,
I had numbness that began in a few of my toes and later spread up to my waist on one side and up to my thigh on the other, but in my case it was all TMS. As the numbness spread, it was accompanied by other strange sensations that led to me being told I could have Multiple Sclerosis, but all testing was negative. When I learned about TMS the numbness and other nuerological type symptoms went away. Occasionally they try to come back, especially in the feet, but I can tell them to go away--and they do--because I know it's TMS. At the time this symptom started, and again at the time that it spread, I was under a great deal of stress, trying to do too much and upset with family members.
The recommendation is always to consider having a new symptom checked out by a doctor. But this is something that TMS can cause, so if you don't turn up some other source for the numbness, perhaps it is TMS. |
