Daily Burning sensation on foot. Can anyone relate?

For the past week I've noticed a burning sensation on foot and now part of my right leg. I have bad health anxiety and had a MRI last year for facial numbness, which came back normal and some of those sensations subsided.

I am scared I have MS but my doctor thinks its just anxiety.

I know someone who got diagnosed with MS through spinal tap because her MRI wasn't really abnormal.

So now my normal MRI isn't making me feel good right now.

Has anyone else experienced this sensation daily?

    I understand, but the more you worry about this the more you’re going to have those sensations. Those don’t really sound like symptoms of MS. I’ve had those same sensations on and off for quite a while, and I do not have MS. What I have is unmanaged, anxiety and stress. Anxiety tends to target the nervous system but any symptoms related to anxiety are not harmful.

    practice relaxing your mind as much as you can. Get on YouTube and listen to some great meditations for anxiety. Take care.
