oh, and I have some suspicions that I might have developed MS sometime during my childhood or teenage years. I have no evidence of that tho...just an experience with vertigo for a month or two when I was maybe 11 where I was dizzy everytime I rode in my dad's Volkswagon Bus. (pre-seatbelt law days) I had to lay on the floor of the bus to keep from being sick everytime I got in it.

My parents thought it was a weird phase I was going thru where I wanted to lay on the foor of the bus, but no, I was dizzy enough to want to hurl.

I also have a few memories of feeling a sensation similar to The Hug in my early 20's. So, I'm not at all sure that I developed MS after having mononucleosis in 1996. I'm not sure if my memories are correct for the timeline of when I remember some of this stuff.
