In this episode, we talk about altered sensations. So what are altered sensations then? They are a bunch of sensory symptoms that can occur in MS, such as burning, tingling, pins and needles, crawling, numbness, prickling and the list goes on!
 
 We talk to Dr Amanda Howarth, a pain specialist about what exactly they are and why they happen. We also share some of the MS community's life hacks around living with altered sensations.
