Hey there everyone..

I have been doing pretty decent with my MS lately.. except the past few days...

I got off work at 6 the other day, came straight home and went directly to sleep. Didn't even wake up for dinner, slept til 8:30 the next morning. Woke up that morning and went to work, got off at 6 and drank an espresso to keep me awake til 9 I'd say.

I have today off, so I went outside to hula hoop (which has been improving my strength and core balance) and realized I am too weak to keep the hoop up so I stopped after trying for about 2 minutes.

When I came inside and sat down this overwhelming feeling came about myself. My insides just did not feel right at all, it was a very scary feeling.

The feeling was much like the feeling I have when I am abruptly woke out of my sleep with that whole 'I feel like I am dying' feeling. It felt almost like I couldn't breathe properly. I was staying as calm as possible, pacing the house, no one is home right now and I wasn't sure what to do.

Has anyone else experienced this bizarre feeling in their bodies?

It wasn't a panic attack. That's what my doctor always refers to it as, I have watched my mom and gma suffer through panic attacks and I KNOW that whatever it is that is happening at the time is NOT a panic attack. The feeling is truly awful. and now that I am thinking about it I have done that 'freak out' thing in my sleep every night for the past week... maybe I am in another flare
