Yes!!!!! twice only thank god scared me to death.
Definitely check with your doctor to rule out heart related problems. I get pains in my chest and ribs quite often. They told me it is called chondritis. It is like muscle around your ribcage having severe spasms. I felt like i was having heartattack too. There is not much to help the pain other than muscle relaxers. I hope this eases your mind alittle but you should get tests done by a cardiologist to be safe. I hope you feel better soon. Hugs.
I just looked it up and it is the inflamation of the cartilage between the ribs and breastbone! I thought i was the only one who had it. It seems i am discovering something new everyday!😏
I recently read an article about many fibro. patients having costochrondritis. I dont know much. Perhaps you may find an online paper. Or... Maybe someone right here may know. I hope you get relief soon.
Yes, I have joint popping all the time. Especially my knees. Sometimes I be afraid to fall asleep due to chest aches. I just pray we all get better from this.
