Greetings,

I was diagnosed with MS 4 years ago. I am on Copaxone and I take Provigil as needed for fatigue.

My question is this: Within the past year I have at times started having the feeling of not being able to take a deep breath, as if I ate a 12 course meal.

I talked to some of my friends who also have MS and they said it is the MS Hug.  Have you heard of this and if so what is happening and how does one treat this?  Thank you for your time in this matter as I am constantly visiting your web site for information about this disease.

Sincerely,

L.

Hi L.,

Please read my post on the MS Hug or Girdle.  In the following days I will be posting more information on this subject.
