Re: rib pain... yes/ Hinky

[Guest guest]

---I started with the rib pain about a year ago. I had it x-rayed

and nothing... It hurt so bad it took my breath away sometimes. I

sat with a wet-heat heating pad for weeks on me. I still have it (

right sides worse) and have it on both sides. I wondered why, now I

know, another fibro thingy... great...Hinky

I have fibro, my mother has fibro (although not diagnosed, as her

doc doesn't believe fibro is a legit dx, but she has ALL of the tender

points as well as many of the more " common " fibro symtems, if there are such

things), and now my 14 y/o daughter has started having rib/chest wall pain.

She has to take a hot shower and use a heating pad at night in order to

sleep. Bt it was so bad last week we ended up taking her to ER at 1 am as

she was in so much pain and said it felt like someone literally knocked the

breath out of her. Of course all the labs and chest x-ray came back

normal. But even though he didn't say the word fibro, the ER doc did say we

should probably get her to a pediatric Rheumy (not one in our area so we'd

have to drive 200+ miles to the city). And though she had it on both sides,

her right is worse, too.

I hope and pray my child doesn't have this monster...

Dear Salma,

I pray your daughter doesn't have it either. Best wishes.
