I think I had MS Hug once, during a flare. Lasted about 2 hours. Felt like labor pains. Could that be what it was?

There is one thing about The Hug that I never believed until about two or three weeks ago. Montel says that your diaphragm freezes, and I just hadnt believed that...until I had that invisible pet python named Squeezee squeezing me around my ribs and stomach.
Ok...NOW I believe his description.
I dont even think I had it as bad as Montel describes, and I wanted to do anything to make it stop. I ended up stealing my mom's TENS unit and put it on the sides of my rib cage and my stomach. That helped a LOT! Didnt make it go away, but at least changed the sensation just enough that I didnt focus on it so much. Basically, I was tasering Squeezee into backing off a teeny bit.
