Hello. It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed with these symptoms, especially when they’re so specific and persistent. Anxiety can cause highly localized physical sensations, including numbness, tingling, and pain, due to heightened nerve sensitivity and hyperawareness of your body. Post-surgery nerve healing might also explain the lingering sensations in your hand, as nerve recovery can take time and sometimes trigger misfires like shocks. A clear MRI last year is reassuring, and MS typically progresses visibly over time. However, if these new symptoms are significantly different, discussing them with your neurologist is a good idea. They can guide whether another MRI or additional tests are necessary.
