Re: Leg Cramps?/ rib cage pain/Cindi

[Guest guest]

>>Cindi & , I had to have some x-rays done because I kept getting a pain

that was on the left side of my rib cage. <<

I think this is likely something different than what I have had. What I have

experienced is not pain but an actual " Charlie Horse " of the muscles over the

ribs. No pain at all except when it is locked up and I am literally writhing

trying to find a position that will release it! LOL

I was just reading about pains on the upper left side of the chest/rib

cage which (coincidence or not?) I also get:) Mine don't usually last

a long time so I haven't told my dr. (I can't tell more than 2

symptoms at a time or it blows her mind! besides all pains like that

are due to stress right? Not.)

I was just reading here: http://www.efibro.com/read.php?f=59&i=83&t=83

about " costochrondritis " that it may be a symptom of Fibromyalgia. I

read " The Thyroid Solution " -by Ridha Arem MD yesterday. It made me

wonder if these pains could all be because of T3 shortage. Anyways -

what a wonderful book!
