Hi

Your chest pain could be codtochondritis as I know that really hurts as I have it. . The back pain could be to do with the costochondritis but please go to your GP. Love and hugs Lynne xxxx

Hi Hun been so many times all tests normal I think it is the costhiondritis ive had it on off 11 months now xxxxxxx

New chest pain needs to be checked out with a dr to be on the safe side.

I get costochondritis and find a hot water bottle on my chest, and one against my back stops it in a few minutes. But do get checked out before treating yourself.

Hope you manage to get it sorted. Costochondritis seems to be yet another common partner to fibro. x

The thing is, I think most of us on here have so many problems, which are all put down to fibro. or the effects of fibro. we despair of going to the docs, yet again; but I do agree about the chest pain. I also like your tip of two hot water bottles. Why didn't I think of that. I manage with one, and it is my best friend. x

I tend to think that if a couple of hot water bottles stop the pain, it can’t be anything serious ( tho my GP did order an ECG and chest X-ray when I first went to him with the symptoms) I realise now I know it’s costochondritis that I had identical pain as a child, for years. My parents wouldn’t believe me and told me I was attention seeking.

My hot water bottles, electric blanket and wool duvet are my best friends—- not sure whether that’s good or just very, very sad 😊
