Rib pain?

[e-sian7]

Hi, does anyone here experience rib pain/pain when breathing in that is linked to their endometriosis please?

Thank you 😊

Hi e-sian7,I get this too, I've been back and forth to the gp but they dont know why 🙄 I'm trying to get hold of my specialist but they dont seem interested either! I have a feeling that it's my endo getting worse, aswell as the rib pains my pains on my right side have been getting worse too! Sorry I cant be anymore help, just know ur not alone x

Hi! I’m convinced it’s linked to it as well, I’m exactly the same and the pain in my right side has been getting worse too. Thank you for your message though, it’s great to know I’m not alone and I appreciate your support x

Hey, I have rib pain and like inhaling glass pain when I breathe in. I have bronchial endometriosis and a pleural effusion which might be linked to pleural endo and diaphragm endo.

Have you seen a thoracic surgeon?

Hiya, I have stage 4 and my diaphragm is covered on both sides, I get pain when breathing, in my shoulder/arm and also a constant stitch pain when I’m on my period up until after I’ve ovulated. x

Endometriosis has been found all over the body including the brain! Unfortunately in the UK we don't have many experts to remove it! Nor are there many experts who can read the scans to look out for it! Thus you can get at times, very rude and dismissive attitudes!
