Hi,
i am wondering if anyone with CP have ever experienced a loss of sensation/ pins and needles feelings in the legs. I'm probably scaring myself more than I need to, well I hope I am anyway!

Hi @littlemissinnocent
Thanks for the post. Loss of sensation/ pins and needles are not commonly associated with CP.
There may be members of the Community who have experienced something similar
I would urge you to seek medical advice if you haven't already.
Stay in touch.

Please do talk about these new symptoms with your GP. If your GP isn't able to advise you of the cause you may need to be referred to a consultant for further investigations. Either way it is important to get checked out and not assume that they are part of your cp.

Thank you for your post @Jean_Scope . I have sought medical advice. I did that before I posted to be honest, but just wanted to see if others had similar experiences. As a result I’ve ended up spending some time in hospital.
