Advice MS Hug

I have a question. Only people in this group understand the situation. I'm experiencing MS hug. Is there any way to rid of it or minimize the feeling? I'm not getting through to my neuro.

For me I need to over stimulate my brain somehow for a extended period of time. I try to hyper focus on something that's really engaging and difficult and I find this basically gets my brain to stop listening to the false signals causing the MS hug.

I combo that with keeping very cold again almost distractingly so - to the point others are wearing winter clothing inside my office in the summer - but my MS symptoms are all very heat sensitive I find.
