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.
Headache, back pain, extremity pain and muscle spasms are the most common pains reported. Because the pain comes from the nerves, common pain medicines like aspirin have little or no effect. Other medications that treat MS pain are listed in the drug treatment section.
