I'm having this pain in my mid-chest, but it only happens with certain movements. I've talked to a bunch of doctors about it, even had some tests like an ECHO done, but everything seems normal. They mentioned it might be muscular pain or something called costochondritis. How long does something like this usually take to feel better? I'm really scared to even pick up my kid right now. Everyone has just suggested using Volini gel. Do you have any home remedies in mind that might help with this?

View allI'm really worried about this ongoing chest pain and difficulty breathing thats been happening for 5 months, and now theres talk about a potential autoimmune disease. It seems to have been confirmed by both my GP and a Pulmonologist, and theyre suggesting seeing a rheumatologist next. The latest episode was really tough, lasted 12 days with fevers around 100.9 to 102, night sweats, and I've lost about 15 pounds. I'm just trying to understand what might be going on and what to expect moving forward. Any insights?

I'm taking folitrax injection 15 mg every week and I'm just wondering, could it cause issues with my digestive system or liver? Also, are there any other noticeable side effects I should be aware of?
Folitrax (methotrexate) can cause digestive issues like nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and stomach ulcers. It may also affect liver function, potentially leading to liver toxicity or elevated liver enzymes. Other side effects could include fatigue, mouth sores, and hair loss.
