Explain the symptoms to me mine are
Sharp pains in the middle I think that is what we call the sternum but more further down towards upper stomach
Then in my upper left chest towards the arm sharp twinges.
Upper back ache lower back ache
Also tight feeling in the chest would say I feel like I can't breathe when that happens but I can breathe it's weird .
But are my symptoms costocondritis?
Hi Lucy Costochondritis is inflammation of the cartilage that connects your ribs to your breastbone. It's one of the most common causes of chest pain.its very painful lass.xxxx
I think it was anxiety and a bit of costo . Seems to have calmed down now thank goodness. I now have pelvic cramps though 😣I'd rather those cramps than chest pains though
I agree, Lucy, that’s more than likely your culprit. You’ve described this often.
But I’d encourage you to talk to your doctor at some point, go ahead and get that confirmation from a medical expert. Then you don’t have to constantly question and worry about what you are feeling. 💛
There are several things that can create the symptoms you’ve described here and in other posts, costochondritis is just one of them. Anxiety can even cause these symptoms.
Do you have a primary care physician you could email or call?
I think it costocondritis xxx
