I suffer with this too. I figured it was a symptom. Didn't know it had a name though. lifting my two year old really gets it going.

Yes, and I didn't know Costochondritis was related to Fibro. I went to the ER. I talked to my neighbor who moved in over a year ago, she has Fibro. She told me the different symptoms she has dealt with. I guess I have a lot to learn.

Lori🌷, Yes, Costochondritis. Many people with Fibro have it. Inflammation of the ribs. Mine comes and goes, very painful at times. And I have to be careful lifting or push pull etc, can trigger it. You might want to check with your doctor. I was diagnosed with Costochondritis after being diagnosed with Fibro 20 yrs ago.
