I've had the same feelings you've described and have had for going on 5 yrs now. Started around same time I was diagnosed with cirrhosis. Not all times but many times I lay down and breathe in, it pops, I breathe out, it pops. I've had x-rays & ultra sounds and nothing shows up. Same with the shoulder and Now my whole arm just constantly aches. My doctor also told me I probably pulled a mussel. Until your post I just figured it was just a symptom if cirrhosis or something to do with my COPD. You wouldn't happen to have that would you? I wish us both the best finding out what it is. Maybe someone else out there has it and has found out what it is and can share

Have you had a scan for gallstones. some of the symptoms are same. pain under right rib and between and around shoulders. especially after eating but not always, just a thought.

Hi, I had the shoulder pain and the pain around my rib cage, mine was due to a stricture in my common bile duct. This is when it stretches and becomes thinner, this makes it easier to block and increases the pressure which causes pain in your right shoulder. I hope this has helped you

Interestingly a liver biopsy can cause right shoulder pain too.

Hi Firecracker , well you have come to the right place. I have only been on this site after a professor , two gastroenterologists told that there was nothing more they could for me. I feel like I have been feeling

Hi fire cracker as I was saying I feel like I have been hit by a freight train of aches itchiness fatigue, jaundice had covid twice and kidneys collapsed is has been a tough year.so I understand what you are going through but with this condition you can get hit with all sorts the worst so has the constant itching and the insomnia . My advice is to telephone the nurses at British liver trust they are very good and will give solid honest advice. Have you been encouraged to get in touch with the palliative car team yet has doctor put you any meds yet. Som days you will feel good other days really rough some days no symptoms some days full of beans others you do not want to get out of bed ok my advise is if you have this bloody. disease if you eat when you feel like like it sleep when you when you want to DO NOT BE AFRAID remember we are all Here to support each other Best wishes Terry.
