At my wits end.
I’ve had ms for almost 10 years and I haven’t went one minute of one day with excruciating pain in both of my feet. Very painful Pins and needles / burning feelings are almost unbearable even with taking high doses of gabapentin and use lidocaine on them. Nobody ever sees the pain I hide with a smile everyday. Just venting

ive changed my diet still in lots of pain
Hi
, I am so sorry to hear that. I understand how you feel, I deal with burning pain, particularly in my legs, every day (https://multiplesclerosis.net/living-with-ms/the-torture-that-is-chronic-pain). No matter how well we handle it, no matter how often we put on that smile, sometimes it just breaks you down. So feel free to vent as much as you need, trust me, I wholeheartedly understand it. If you've changed your diet and you are still in lots of pain you need to change it again.
What have you eaten leading into the times where the pain is at its worse? Keep a food diary and see what you are reacting too. Do you still have dairy in your diet? If yes get rid of it unless there is a medical reason not to. Even trace amounts.
Are you stressed?
