Okay, as long as we are talking about this, when you all talk about banding
pain, is it like very sharp pain? Every few weeks I have severe sharp
pain at the top of my rib cage where it is almost hard to breathe.
Is that banding?

It is the same thing MS people get. They call it “the MS Hug”, and for them
it can be an almost constant annoyance and discomfort, especially when
trying to fall asleep.

Hi,
I also suffer from 'banding', the neurologist didn't speak about it but
I learnt what it was from other people TM had hit.

Betty, while in hospital after TM hit, I described this awful
discomfort I was experiencing as feeling like having bands of steel
under my skin. The neurologist said nothing, just looked at me as
though I was deranged!! Of course, I later learned for myself that it
was commonly referred to as banding.

I, too, have banding. When I asked the neurologist about it, he asked,
"what's that?"
I tried to explain it to him.

Hi Rob, sorry to hear that things have been so bad for you. Not many
speak about banding. In six years I have had some very slight
improvement in other areas but the banding is always with me,
intensifying with changes in the weather. I have accepted that it is
a permanent part of my life. Strangely, it never bothers me when I
am in bed.
