Diaphragm Discomfort

Hello,

Does anyone get this, such as an ache around the area?

  1. Hi Jodi!

    Thanks so much! I’ve only been experiencing this for about 2 weeks or so. It goes around to my sides and back too. Like under the bra line. I also replied to you in another post. FYI I’m not yet Dx but do show “low” levels of antibodies all 3 (“negative” - I read your response to that). I’ve had symptoms for decades but never this. And I do get short of breath along with bulbar symptoms now, which before was rarely the case and not to this degree. It took me 1 hour and 20 minutes to eat a piece of prime rib on Saturday. What? 🙁
    I think I need help…
