canon Posted November 17, 2008 Hi Razz, Sorry to hear you have been so ill but am glad you are feeling better now. I have heard it is quite a painful thing to have. Will keep you in my thoughts. As for ANA's there has been no specific pattern with mine. They are either positive or negative and no in between. Take care razz. With gentle thoughts. Judy Quote A happy heart is good medicine.

truman Posted November 17, 2008 Razz: I've gotten that within the last month. I attributed it to an allergic cough and the dry heaves from IBS. I thought I just strained my chest muscles! I could barely breathe. I tried a heating pad which made things worse, then ice packs. The ice packs worked wonders! Quote Tru It is what it is...........

razz Posted November 18, 2008 Judy, Thanks for your kind words of support. Truman, I also thought it was a strain or maybe I bruised myself, and I couldn't figure out why it affected my breathing. I'm glad you found something that worked! Hugs, Razz Quote Live well, Laugh often, Love much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
