What does your MS hug feel like? Do you get numbness too? I have been having pain in my hips, all the way across. I have noticed numbness too? Any one else experience this?

MS hug is typical around your chest area and your diaphragm.

What I get is like having a huge rubber band around my chest or abdomen (or sometimes one of my legs), but not sure if that's the same as the 'hug'. No doctor has ever told me for sure. Not sure they understand what I'm talking about.

@A MyMSTeam Member thank you for the links. Now I'm worried something else is going on. Hmm..
