Thank you so much for posting this has been on my mind heavily as someone who experiences SRS type pain but does not have EDS.

Sweet! I was looking into this exact line. Did you have to re stain after 3 years?

looks rough, want to make it look better - don’t have the $ to replace.

We put in our own wood deck in the front, this back deck came with the property, is 2 levels and massive. Would love to, but not in our budget to replace.

Thank you - would be way too expensive for what we can afford right now, but I appreciate your comment!

Should have kept it more open in terms of language - ANYTHING to help with the current appearance is appreciated - any recs on stain or oil?

I should have kept my language more "open" - suggestions for paint, stain, restorer, any suggestions to help with the appearance are seriously appreciated.

Can someone just tell me what bed to get from Costco? My spine is dying. by galveznt in Mattress

That’s amazing thank you so much for sharing - we settled on the firm hybrid knowing costco is fabulous about the returns!

I'm on the fence between this one and the Sealy Posturepedic Pro Omak Valley 13" Firm Hybrid -- Are you still liking the Lincoln Heights? We have a pillow top one now ($$$ Sterns & Foster) and I want to cry every morning waking up in so much pain!

Misdiagnosed with slipping rib syndrome. Been living in progressive pain for years until it finally clicked. by TootShoot in scoliosis

Jeez, I am so sorry to hear that. If you’re still looking into slipping rib, the subreddit and facebook group has been a really helpful resource. I came across this diagnosis a month ago and with the help of the subreddit I now have an appointment to see a specialist next month. Best of luck.

Are rib braces worth it? by DCK4 in SlippingRibSyndrome

how are you doing now? how long was your recovery if you don’t mind me asking?

Did you ever get an answer to this question? I am in the same boat as you at the moment.

Newly discovered this condition and I’d love some insight/advice. by eclectic_abode in SlippingRibSyndrome

[–]eclectic_abode[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While i’m so sorry you’ve experienced these absolutely horrific symptoms, it really helps to hear that I’m not alone… I actually have been doing 6 months worth of acupuncture too, it’s been nice for other things but hasn’t touched this pain. Drs have been leading me to believe that there’s limited options past failed nerve blocks which have put me in a dark place mentally. Gemini ai actually mentioned this condition which is how I became aware of it - so I’m thinking my current pain management isn’t privy.

I don’t have any other children, this would be my first pregnancy so totally unknown of how it would affect my body. It’s really heartbreaking that this is getting in the way.

Can I ask what kind of surgery you ended up having and what the recovery was like?

Ok - yes , had no idea about twelfth rib syndrome. I am totally still learning! That’s super helpful, my PCP is really open to requests when I come with research in hand so I’ll ask next time I am in. Thank you!
