Ribs hurt terribly during liver scan

[Lilybug]

Hi Everyone

I’ve been in lots of pain in my joints since before Christmas

Ive not been officially diagnosed but it’s definitely Gout and I believe rheumatoid arthritis. I have autoimmune hepatitis and in the past my liver flare ups have been with chronic joint pain I thought it was my liver again

Liver was ok but worried about the pain meds I’ve been taking every day slightly more fat on my liver from scan today but my new gout diet should help with that as well

But my scan for my liver ive never felt anything like this I had to keep stoping to catch my breath the pain on my ribs was terrible I must have had 200 scans on my liver and it’s never felt this

Does rheumatoid arthritis effect your ribs as well

I’ve got lots of questions for future post so thanks in advance

On this forum we’re not medical people and your needs are clearly quite complex. Just to say that I hope a professional can help you.

Hi Happyrosie

Yes Thankyou

I agree

but hoping the question re the ribs could possibly be answered

Because of the autoimmune liver it’s very likely rheumatoid it’s quite possible we have all been treating my liver with all these symptoms when it’s possible it was rheumatoid as well

Would love to know

Many thanks x
