Bra's and anxiety meds.   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #18411 of 18988 |
I haven't been about 2 wear bras since I got Costo nearly 8 years ago and I
was given anti anxiety meds by my
Doctor but only after one day of them, I thought I was going nuts, I had so
many side effects. I have tension in my body from the pain and I have
found that it is helps to take magnesium for this as it relaxes muscle
tension. Stress
Can make the pain worse from Costo. I think it has something to do with all
the nerve endings in our ribcage being
Inflamed. Hope this helps.
Wendy

Subject: [costochondritis] I am hoping someone will reply to my question?

I am just wondering if anyone else finds it difficult/uncomfortable to
wear a bra because of the costo?

Also, since I noticed a lot of people on here also take anxiety meds, I am
wondering if it helps with the costo or is it just because costo drives US
crazy?

Any responses would be appreciated. Thanks!

Lacy: Yes, I'm quite sure the article addressed inflammatory conditions, and stated that those, too, have been helped with the Vit. D3, but it has to be D3,...
