Can anyone and everyone describe the MS HUG to me??? I do not have a diagnosis yet, but I was convinced that I have Lupus and now all of these things I am reading about MS sound like me too...

    My ENT sent me for more tests last week...one where they had me lie back in a chair, with blacked out goggles on so I couldn't see while they administered water into my ears one at a time ( first warm, then room-tempurature, then cold) while they video taped my eyes and asked me questions to determine how cognizant I was... This test went HORRIBLY. They were about 20 seconds or so into...
