Good evening,

I was recently diagnosed with Costochondritis and been suffering them symptoms. I also had bad anxiety but have managed to get that under control. 

For the past 3/4 days I’ve been suffering from an extremely sore pain on my right hand side just below or Level with the bottom of my ribs. This pain last for about 30 seconds and makes me grind to a complete hault, almost crying with pain. 

Is this something anyone else has had to put my mind about rest?

    Hi James. Yes I’m afraid it all goes hand in hand. When mine starts it’s like a red hot poker inside my ribs ☹️

    Yep. I got it in my chest and ribs. It lasts for a few seconds and comes back all day long. It hurt to press on my ribs and chest. My breastbone became ridiculously sore. My collarbones hurt too. I don't have it as bad right now but I've had it a month or two.

    I also get it across my upper back, across my shoulders, really sharp pains that take your breath away. Had Costo for 18 months now and doesn't seem to be going away at all. Horrible
