Brief Answer:
Dialogue between you tow is most important!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this multiple sclerosis and the impact this has had on your body's sensations. I understand how difficult it is to attain orgasm given the set backs you have with your nervous system.
Most Nervous lesions related to multiple sclerosis is not amendable to therapy. While we try several different drugs to halt progress, reversing sustained lesions is always very difficult. Since the nervous pathway that should normal help you attain orgasm seems affected, talking to your partner to understand and support you with this is the best. There is no medication out there that can address this problem. Have an honest discussion with him and tell hi what the possible reasons are. tell him how much you try and yet it doesn't get any better and let him know that you count on him for his support and every other help to walk through this illness and difficulties in your life. The last thing you would want is another person reminding you of your illness and problems that the solutions seem far off from you to address.
In all, communication to make him understand the difficulty, the absence of immediate treatment and the need for him to assist and support you through all these difficult moments. I think he would understand and that is my utmost wish for you.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

So there is no meds or medical equipment that might help me.
Brief Answer:
No, we don't have those as of now!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for following up with me.
Loss of sensation caused by nervous pathway problems are always difficult to correct. The numbness you have on the left side probably involves the genital area as well. Sensations needs to be picked from this area, transmitted to the brain for you to be able to attain orgasm easily. This would not be fixed by a drug or an equipment. Talk to your boyfriend about this.
I understand how difficult this is for you and you both. I hope you both find a way to accept it and move forward despite the challenges you face in your relationship.
I wish you both well.
