(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.

Thanks so much for your insight. This is just such a strange trip. Now I keep convincing myself that every single weird sensation that I have has to do with MS. I need to quit it.
One other question I have is this - does heat actually cause flare ups, or does it just make old flare ups feel worse? My doc says the former, but all literature that I've read says the latter... I really like being outdoors, and I live in Texas. Not looking forward to trading my mountain bike for a stationary one...
