Jim had the hug last year Cheryl. It was kind of funny in a way because as soon as he got it I said "Oh honey, you have the MS Hug." he asked how I knew that and I said al my good friends online told me about it. Sure enough that's what it was. he said it was like he was getting a hug from a bear. He had to sit straight up to catch his breath. Laying down made it worse.

This prompted a MRI from his nuero to see if a lesion was laying somewhere to explain the sensation. Nothing showed up and she up'd his Nuerontin.

It lasted off and on about two months and hasn't returned. That's when Jim told me to never leave my internet friends with ms. :-)
