Question (Another) Question about The Hug...

Okay...I know this has been discussed before, but when I try to do a search on MS Hug, it doesn't come up with anything...

I've read descriptions of the hug, but can't determine if what I'm experiencing is the hug or something else...so I wanted to see if anyone had an input (yes, I'm going to call my neuro - I see him on Tuesday, tho)...

So here it is - it usually starts when I wake up in the morning and am laying in bed. At first I thought that I was ovulating (sorry guys)...as the pain is on my sides, toward my back, at waist level or so. I know in the past, I would attribute something like this pain to ovulation. However, I have been experiencing this for over a week now - so I'm thinking not so much about the ovulation theory. I usually feel this "pain" for at least an hour after I wake up...and then sometimes during the day I experience it for brief periods of time. Also, if I wake up and decide to stay in bed, the pain does not lessen at all.

Sometimes the pain is on both sides and around the back, sometimes one side (like right now). It seems lower than my ribs, but I dunno, I can't even tell. Sometimes I have a hard time "placing" where a pain or sensation is.

Thoughts?

Thx.
