RE: Subject: Re: Question (s)!

[Guest guest]

Hi Heidi,

I've had chest/lung pain, which my MD gave me in inhaler for. It didn't

help at all, and only made me jittery. I really don't have shortness of

breath with it, but he wanted to give it a try anyway.

When I went to my rheumy, he said it was most likely costochondritis and RA

related. I asked him if a prednisone taper would help, and he said yes.

I hope your doctor gets it all worked out and your RA back under control.

And my prayers are with your grandma, too. How terrible that she isn't

getting any treatment for her pain.

Hugs,

Carol

Re: Question (s)!

Hi Stacey in PA,

Thanks for the reply, I do still have a gall bladder. a sent me some

links on costochondritis and it sounds a lot like that so I don't know

really. I'm going to mention it to my Rheumy when I see her this afternoon

and see what she thinks.

Hugs,

Heidi

Hi Heidi,

Sorry to hear that you're not feeling well. Do you still have your

gallbladder? If you do, it could be causing the pain in your ribs and

chest.

I had mine removed right after Wyatt was born. The pain that I had

sounded

like what you are having. It's a thought, anyway. Hope you feel better

soon.

Love and Hugs

Stacey in PA
