According to this explanation from the Multiple Sclerosis Trust website, numbness or loss of sensations would be included as impairment in the functional system (FS). Each functional system is scored on a scale of 0 (no disability) to 5 or 6 (more severe disability).

EDSS steps 5.0 to 9.5 are defined by the impairment to walking.
I wonder if the tingling needs to happen most of the time (rather than sometimes) in order to be scored? I really don't know.

Ultimately, I suppose it all depends on the neuro's assessment.
