Guest guest Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 Thank you, thank you, thank you... I am angry to tears. Along with My HypoT symptons I have complained of the subr rib cage pain for over 10 years now. Not once have any dr. done anything but suggest phantom pain. Only reading the posts with adrenal connections did I ever even suspect that possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hi! I have 's disease (no adrenal function anymore) but I don't have pain under my ribcage or in my back. I do know that others with 's do, though. My Endo is checking me for low Thyroid. 2 1/2 months ago he tested and said all 3 were on the very low normal range so he had me wait and have my blood drawn again a week and a half ago. I think he's running an antibody test or something like that. Haven't heard anything back from him yet. My symptoms are insomnia, cold (but too hot sometimes due to menopause), weird aches and pains in my shoulders and hand knuckles, very tired, bruise very, very easily, etc. Tressie Re: adrenal pain??? Yes they can. A friend of mine has 's disease. No adrenal function hardly at all. She gets pains there. Caroline adrenal pain??? could pains located deep under your rib cage be adrenal pain?

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 The upper body/arms/hands aches/pains sounds like thyroid to me. So does the tiredness & fatigue. Good luck with your Endo. Hope s-he doesn't go strictly by lab results but does prescribe for symptoms. Caroline adrenal pain??? could pains located deep under your rib cage be adrenal pain?

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Thank you....I think he's open to the symptoms but won't prescribe anything until he's done all the bloods tests for hypo necessary. I don't have an appt scheduled yet. Waiting to see if he calls me or not. If not, I'll call him! Tressie Re: adrenal pain??? The upper body/arms/hands aches/pains sounds like thyroid to me.
