Hi 5babymama welcome to the nut house!😊 I have gotten the dreaded MS hug.. usually for me tho it's when I go from warm to bitter cold. It doesn't help I live in NY State either. 🙃 Have you talked to your Neuro about it? I know there are others here that get the hug also... 🤗💕🌠
During my last relapse, I always experienced the MS hug most at bedtime.
i've noticed most of my symptoms are worse at the end of the day. i'm not sure if it's cumulative fatigue or what.
i think thats part of it BT.. I get more spasms and other symptoms like headaches and eye pain the later it is in the day. Not that I never have symptoms during the day.. I wake up with them sometimes but they are generally worst/more later in the day
I've been fortunate and over the years have only had 2. As I recall they were at night!
unfortunately i get these randomly at different times of the day and night. I use some CBD lotion and then place the TENS unit on the rib cage to help ease the spasms.. sometimes it takes a while and i need to move the pads around a bit but it generally helps ease them. I also have to stretch the rib cage muscles out as well. I stand next to a wall and "walk" my fingers slowly up the wall until i feel the rib muscles start to stretch.. If I can go further, I do.. sometimes I cannot.. I will do this a few times then rest.. The thing i have found with any spasm is you have to engage the muscle in spasm in order to get the spasm to release.. so thats the purpose of the finger walking..
Hey! I’m new here! I’m Sarah. I stumbled upon this group and I’ve already learned so much from reading through some things. I don’t feel so crazy! Haha I am currently undiagnosed but that’s mostly due to no insurance and I can’t afford an MRI without it, so I’m working on that. Lots of MS symptoms on and off for years now. Each time gets a little worse. I work with a functional neurologist and he’s been great. 5babymama My hugs seem to happen kind of whenever. 🤷🏼♀️ I woke up with one the other day. Just mild, then as I got up and moving it seemed to hug me more- so sweet. 🥴 Question: does anyone have like a cranking type of pain with theirs? I have to walk half bent sometimes due to the pain.
