Costochondritis Community Group
For sufferers of Costochondritis to discuss treatment options and causes.
Just been diagnosed with Chonic Costochondritis and I was hoping that someone could tell me if it will go away. I had been to many specialist for chest pain, lung pain, pain in my upper back for more that 2 years. They have finally given be a concoction of pain meds and they are working but I do not want to be on these meds for the rest of my life. Does this go away? Ida

Well, I see the specialist for Costochronditis, Rhuematologist. He told TRUE costochrondritis is actually very RARE. He also said it should only last a couple of weeks. It can also be part of Lupus or Fibro? Do you have either of those?? Curious. Stress is suppose to be a trigger of it, it's also called Tietz Syndrome.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
