Hello to all you great ladies! I know we all experience aches and pains, my question is do any of you have aches and pains that makes you think something could be seriously wrong? Meaning does anyone ever hurt in other places besides legs, lower back , neck etc.. I know some of you probably thinking I sound coo-coo. My high anxiety that im having doesn't help any.
Hi Donna,
What pain are you suffering from huni xx
My upper left side on my side area.
Yes I do :-( I have a dull pressure on the top of my left bicep that comes and goes, my anxiety has just gone up a gear and finding it hard to get asleep and stay asleep which is new and have back ache between shoulders blades and top left of breast area....googled it (I know I shouldn't ) and it comes back with pro domal heart attack signs!! Doctor thinks I'm mad, said it's unlikely to be heart! Really worries me :-( x
Tracky same here all except for top left breast area. I try not to google it surely can scare the heck outta you. And I dong wanna go to the doctor afraid. I know I sound nut. It was such a bad 2014 for me and my family I just want to have peace and joy in my life again. That's what I pray for. Thanks for your reply. 
I get random pain too - mine are similar to yours but at the moment, suffering with random breast pain and tenderness - not due yet though 
I suffer from anxiety too xx
Its surely is tough being a woman at times that's for sure. I get that with my breast occasionally.
Hi Donna,i get neck ache and i have had costochondritis for about 18months,which is imflamation of the ribs under the breastbone,i thought it was something more serious,the dr sent me for a mammogram and thank fully it was ok.They then told me what it was and that there is no explanation for it and no cure,it can last up to 12 months but some people say they have had it for years and it goes of its own accord.I read somewhere that it can be one of the less common symptoms of peri/menopause.i also get tightness which feels like having an elastic band under my bust,this comes and goes,i also get breast pain and tendrness which also comes and goes.Its not too bad,knowing what it is,helps a little x
Thanks for your reply debwestmids. I suppose not every ache and pain is indication of something serious. I haven't been to the doctor I don't like doctors.
Donna try taking vitamin b I take busy bee from Holland and Barrat I get some terrible aches and pains and with the anxiety I would wind myself up thinking something was seriously wrong I wouldn't go to doctors cause I was frightened since takings busy b I don't get the anxiety anymore so can cope with the pain better I have now started taking vitamin d for the pain so hopefully that will kick in soon.
Thank you sprohop! All you ladies are awesome
Wow! You've just described what I sometimes experience under my left breast bone. It can be very painful. It flares up sometimes around ovulation for me and before a period is coming. It feels just like you described, like an elastic band is sitting under my rib cage. I wonder though if it is gastrointestinal related because sometimes if I take a Zantac that helps
I know. I think like that too. I worry that every little pain means something is wrong. On Christmas Eve I went to the ER thinking it was my heart. Turns out it was acid reflux flaring up. My husband says I'm obsessing over these symptoms.
My pain is on my left upper side like between back and front
That's where I get it sometimes too. It's all gastrointestinally related, I think.
Thanks sharcerv. I love you ladies we are all like a big family that never see's each other
I know. It would be nice if we could post a photo but then again we don't know who views these forums aside from us.
I know and you are right about that.
Does it sometimes interfere with your appetite making it difficult to want to eat? I get nauseous with it too.
No its just annoying. Its hard to explain kinda feels like a elastic band with annoying pain.
