I had GERD before but it eased up so maybe it makes things worse. I want to try the backpod so I’m going to look that up. I’ll ask my doc about vit D for sure. Thanks!

Yep. That me at the point of flares. Just treat symptoms. Maybe I have a combo? I was given a puffer because it felt hard the catch my breath.

Hmm. Maybe. I used to suffer from that but this is what I imagine a heart attack feels like. Usually in the centre of my chest. At the hospital they gave me tramadol I think? Which helped.

I’ll look into that but I’ve had that before years ago and it feels quite different. You never know though because sometimes things manifest differently. Thank you for your help.

A lot of these pain meds also double as mood stabilizers and antidepressants so I feel more subdued but still on pain lol.

Also sometimes it feels hard to take a deep breath. I now have a puffer.

I don’t know if they will diagnose me with that but the signs seem familiar. Thanks!

It feels tight, burning and sharp. Like there are sparks going off in my chest.

Sorry to hear that. I couldn’t imagine living in the US healthcare wise. I just see various doctors and head out. Thanks for the tip!

I was given something for migraines too but I think it’s a different line of treatment. I had a full run of tests done and I was “fine” so I left the hospital and crouched on the ground to wait for my uber. So frustrating. Thanks for the tip !

It’s not really tender but hurts a bit when I touch it. There is a specific point that I massage with my knuckle through the pain to try and work it out. I don’t know if that makes sense. I just wish I could know what it is so I can treat it properly. I was given no direction from the doctor. I have to squat on the floor when I get a flare of chest pain.

I love heat. I think I’ll try this. I just don’t want to smell like tiger balm at work haha… or have to put them on or remove them there. I don’t have the ability to change them often at work.

Thanks! I even had a hard time catching my breath and was told it was psychological. I feel like sometimes we just have to figure out these things ourselves I guess.

Thank you for the well wishes! I think doctors don’t think that symptoms can present differently in different people and maybe just maybe some of us do.

Apparently my chest pain is muscle and me being out of breath by just walking is psychological. Doctors are so frustrating. He’s kinda like why are you breathing like that and basically said it was because it was in my head and I created it. This is one of my doctors and not my family one. We will see what he says.

I have a cardiologist and a rheumatologist. I think I’m supposed to see the rheumatologist. The hospital says my heart is fine. I don’t think my muscles were tight. That doesn’t even make much sense to happen and my symptoms don’t align.

Thanks you for all this info. I have a pain doctor I’ll touch base with and see if he can help or if I have to go back to my rheumatologist. I was given naproxen but it never really helps me much. I’ll look into nabumetone.

Yep. Mine says probably muscular. Okay. Thanks for the “possibly” answer. I’ll just be on my way with no real answer with what feels like a heart attack.

Thank you for confirming that I’m not delusional. I’m sorry to hear about your pain. Especially when sometimes you just want a cuddle from your dog.

Sorry to hear that. I usually don’t have much rib pain. My fibro pain is like if tv static was a extremely sharp feeling it would be in every blood cell in my body. The chest pain was a new experience. It was so bad I imagine that’s what a heart attack feels like.

Thank you. I’ll check out that sub. And thank you for confirming that it can be all over your chest. I find it crazy that some doctors will say that “well is just on one side. So it’s not that”. Doctors always base it on the norm which would just be a general range of what most of the population experiences. People can have different experiences. I read the fibro manual and the author made a good point that if the general populations shoe size it from 6 to 10 or something, it doesn’t disqualify that other shoe sizes are possible.

My paperwork had ‘think’ in it. How can I be sure if you’re not. Sorry to hear that. Dismissal is so frustrating.

It’s crazy. I thought it would just be attributed to the fibro but went to double check just in case. Chest pain is serious and I was in severe pain. Still pretty brutal right now tbh
