So when i get my flares i get pain in my legs, chest, arms, neck and head. Everytime ive had a flare lately though in addition to my usual symptoms and pain ive been getting pain under my left rib. Sometimes in my shoulder, sometimes my side , and sometimes under my breast. Its gotten more intense with each flare. Im hoping its just fibro related and not something more nefarious. The last two flares sent me to the er and they did a ct among all the other work ups and it was clear. Ive had (prior… read more
Yes, I can totally relate. While I get widespread pain all over, my back, head and ribcage hurt the most during a flare. I have had an endoscopy, as well for spasms, and bloodwork, all normal.

It can be really scary to have pain so severe but unfortunately, fibro can be like that. So sorry you are dealing with this awful illness.
I am i trested if you get advice on it let me know because it sounds the same . Yes but sometimes it puts pressure on when you breath in . I tennis ball mine on a wall hurts like hell buu after few days it eases it 🤔it is odd x
Thank you so much for your answer!!!! I have pain like that as well, but this one is like a pressure that feels like its under/in my ribcage. Its bizarre!
Sorry bluebird21!!! I didnt realize i missed you!!! Its just constant lately . Pressure infer my left ribcage! Used to always be at the end of a flare and now it seems steady! My legs are a little achy not as bad as usual but everything else seems to have gone away except this left sided pain! I have the same thing sometimes when i take a deep breath in it hurts!!!
Thank you so much!!! Yea it freaked me out that it was so severe in one place and wasnt easing up!!! I just never know whats the fibro and whats something else. Ive had so many ct scans that i think something would have shown and i dont want to go again.
