Factors influencing successful weight loss are: weight loss during dieting alone, adherence to diet, eating habits, motivation and personality. Weight loss due to weight reduction medication use is generally temporary. In addition, the potential for development of physical dependence and addiction is high.
What Youâre Feeling. Like most symptoms of MS, the feeling is different for each person. You might have pain under your rib cage or anywhere between your neck and waistline. It can be dull and achy, sharp, or burning. It can last a few seconds to a few hours, and in rare cases, a few days.
Can spasms in the back, around rib cage be considered symptom of MS? I have been having such painful spasms but don't think it's what is referred to as an MS hug as it doesn't feel like pressure so much as just spasms of muscles around rib cage. The pain is so bad I'd rate it an 8 or 9 out of 10 and it brings me to tears...mostly at night...waking me up around 1:00 or so. Fun....
