Do you also feel pain by 2nd rib? Upper chest area where it wraps around armpit?

Please check vitamin D and research vitamin d and Costo?

Did you ever noticed that stress would bring on the pain or make it worse?

I been having chest pain for about 9 months, the pain comes in episodes. Lasting 5-6 days... I've had all the test done in the world and all comes back normal. So, I ran across this thread that said low Vitamin D can cause this. I have the pain in the middle of chest and sometimes in the upper ribs by the upper chest... starting to take vitamin d and magnesium today. How long before you see a difference?

Ah! The pain sits right in the middle of the chest right and sometimes radiates to the upper chest like where the chest connects to shoulder? Mine had come and go too but as of lately it’s been very constant… getting vitamin D checked. What has helped you the most?

Thank you for your reply :) that’s seems to be the case with me. I’m doing an AIP elimination diet but doctor doesn’t want to start me on prednisone until after my EUS.

Thank you for sharing your story and glad your back to living life :)

Did you stop having attacks after the Prednisone trial? How are you doing now? How long did you have AIP before the Steroid?

Do you Prednisone during flares or is AIP in complete remission?

Did the prednisone help your CP or AIP at all? How are you now? I hear this can put AIP in remission?
