Excruciating Pain In Feet; Electric Shocks In Legs

I have MS pretty much in the advanced stage in the first night while on mirtazapine I got strong electric shock pain in both legs coming and going – totally unbearable! These pretty much ceased to exist although coming back a different form every now and then but now the latest that has been excruciating pain in one or the other feet. Since mirtazapine works along the nerve pathways, making them stronger, I've read – this makes sense a definite no-no for someone with pain there already! Duh – Dr. "specialists"!

I was given Mirtazapine about 2 weeks ago to help with sleep, took 15mg before bed as directed, went sleepy. Very next morning got electric shock sensation from leg into foot, kept taking dose, electric shock / zap / pins-and-needles thing keeps happening, in both feet. Never had anything like this before taking Mirtazapine, not taking anything else. Told doc who doesn't link it with the med... what do you bet it stops when I stop taking it...
