Numbness Of Arm/leg/foot/hand
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I know most of us has numbing and tingling of parts of our bodies. What do you take for it? My gabapentin isnt working anymore. I am only taking 200mg at night, since it makes me feel “drunk”. Not sure if the numb arms, legs or creepy crawly feeling inside my head is the worst. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thanks in advance!
