Poll: do you get symptoms similar to an "MS Hug"?

[maybe some day]

Yes, i get that off and on lately. I had no idea there was a name for it. I did have a chest injury in the past too

I get something that feels like the aftermath of having the wind knocked out of you. Sort of like you've been hit by a boat paddle to the solar plexus recently and are still reeling from it. It's associated with overdoing, though it's sometimes present otherwise.

I do wonder if this is caused by a kind of pre-NAFLD (Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease) for some of us. One site, which I cannot find again right now, said that EBV and Cytomegalovirus can both be involved.

NAFLD can also affect the esophagus which they said can end up being fatal.

I'm just experiencing a lot of this lately. My liver, spleen and esophagus all seem inflamed and irritated and I feel like I'm being squeezed over the lower half of my rib cage as well right underneath that.

I was originally thinking acid reflux but now I am wondering especially since I do think with our disease our livers tend to get bogged more than average.
