    So yesterday I was getting shooting/burning pain in my chest when I moved which was quite painful. Woke up this morning at 5 and couldn’t get off the couch I was in that much pain. Took me about 2 hours and couldn’t stop crying in pain. I spoke to my nurse yesterday and she seems to think it’s normal. Has anyone else had this?? I thought by day 4 I would be feeling loads better but today’s probably my worst!’xx

    Hi thank you Rebecca so glad Its not just me. Stated to make me panic as I feel like I’m just going down hill with the pain. It’s making me so emotional , pain killers don’t seem to do much. When I’m sat not doing anything it’s fine just soon as I try to move or stand up. It sounds ridiculous but I actually thought I was going to past out before the pain just shot through my chest made me feel sick!
    Least I know it will get better though thank you xxxx

    Yes your definitely not on your own, I was in so much pain and I thought it would never pass but after the 7 day Mark you start to feel a little better each day try not to keep still for so long as I found doing that made me feel so much worse.. my painkillers didn’t really do much too , try stay positive and each day that passes is a day closer to being back to yourself xxx

    That’s what I feel like the pains killers are not really doing much! Aw I hope so! That’s for the advice!! It is usually more painful in a morning and after a nap! I’ll try be more active see if that helps. Thank you xxx
