I’m so depressed. I have had some pain under my ribs for a few months that comes and goes (left and right, front and on both sides). I just assumed it was to do with my GERD and have been waiting a few weeks to see my Dr to get a referral to a gastro.
I’ve now had a CT scan to check the stability of lung nodules (4x ground glass) and emphysema and COPD changes have been indicated.
I cannot help but think it is somehow related to my rib pain. I’m so anxious, really unhealthy thoughts.
It hurts just sitting down. I feel so overwhelmed. I see my pulmonologist next week and it seems so far away.
Sorry to whinge but I need to hear from people who understand how I am feeling.
