I have ms hug symtoms. But also, my pcp and neuro doesn't want to just blame everything on my ms, which I feel is wise. So they just did an x-ray and ultra-sound. I have 3 gallstones and am going Friday for consultation with a surgeon. They still feel I have the ms hug. But the gallbladder can cause different pain and discomfort, so some folks who have had it have told me. I don't know if this helps. I could be wrong... but just another idea. Good luck!

Julie, I saw this today and thought of you. Check it out . . .

Thanks, I haven't been coughing any but am feeling a little better right now. No bad tightness in some time just like a dull ache.

Hello Julie glad your fence will be fixed,

Before I was able to even put a name on it, I must admit how you describe it, its a lot like how I would try to desribe it, It wasnt till I saw Barbs comments on draw a line from front to back and the pain shot straight through and down and etc.....

when I saw that I realized that was how i described it to my neuro, along with the tightness and feel like someone is sitting on my chest and every breath can be a labored issue, I hope some answer comes your way, I can only imagine the annoyance of having these SX, yet not being dx'ed
hang in there hope you also get to feeling better





peace

I think my real point here was that I'm learning to not ignore sx when they change or get worse, because I now know first hand that what seems like one issue can actually be MS plus another medical condition that needs attention. Sorry I forgot to say that.

Oh, I got it now I'm S L O W some times.
My head has been hurting some much today anyway that I can't read 1/2 these post straight.
