anyone 1st symptom, pain in scapula (shoulder blade)

February 22, 2005

I've been lurking for awhile and my history goes back 5 years.

First pain on left side was irratation upper back. Next I noticed I

was putting pressure against left breast with my fist. Just

wondering if anyone else had these signs in the beginning.

Suzi and Pat,

I just wanted you to add me to the list for that left shoulder pain as

being one of the first symptoms. I would get it severely, and even

visited the chiropractor many times when it started. The left

shoulder, right down underneath the blade, was the worst and always

had the most prominent pain, but if the flare was really bad, then

BOTH shoulders would hurt. I also, grip my left side, or place my

hand over the left side of my lower ribs and abdomen. Whenever my

husband sees me doing that, he knows that it's acting up again. It's

a subconscious maneuver....funny that he notices it, and then knows

that panc. troubles are brewing.

With love, hope and prayers,

Heidi
