MS hug question?
Hi,
I've never experienced an MS hug before, so for those of you that have this symptom, can you please advise whether you think my symptoms are MS related, as I'm a bit unsure if its just my MS giving me a new symptom as I'm under an extreme amount of stress right now, or whether I should be concerned? I am getting a stabbing pain at the base of my ribs left of centre, which is worse when I breathe in. There is a general tightness across my whole chest. Haven't done anything to pull any muscles but was just like it when I woke up this morning. Other than the tightness and stabbing pain, I feel ok (besides the normal MS symptoms), no dizziness or paleness indicating heart issues. Don't really want to waste doctors time and spend the day in AandE if I can help it!
Thank you so much for your help, very much appreciated.
I had the hug a few times years ago and didn't know what it was at the time. The best I can describe is like feeling a tight pressure around my midsection and back similar to bad gas pain. It just randomly came and went, hasn't happened in years.
It does sound like it. Perhaps a quick checkup with a doctor just in case it's something else? It's so easy to put any new symptoms down to MS but you shouldn't just assume. Take care
