Recently I started having my chest feeling really tight sometimes, I touch my ribs and it really hurts; I do strechings for my myofascia and sometimes have to take my bra off. The first time it happened was after getting really upset with my son, and I got pretty scared, I told about it to my cardilogist who says it was nothing related to my heart since my tests came up ok.
Does soemone knows what can help with that. Thanks in advance.

could very well be costochondritis caused by Babesia or bart

this article talks a bit about costo

The ribs on my left side have hurt almost from the beginning of lyme symptoms.

My left side is my bad side - where I have more symptoms.

They only bother me sometimes now - and not as bad.

I find when I’m sitting they seem more irritated.

I’m quite sure it’s bart causing it

I've also struggled with a mysterious chest tightness for quite some time, along with actual chest pain. I have mold illness/cirs/ and the Lyme co infections like Babesia/parasites/heavy metals which makes it super tough to know what's actually causing the chest tightness. It could any one of these... other things I've heard could be a cause are hidden dental infections like an asymptomatic infected tooth or dental cavitations. There's one story of a girl who had her chest pressure relieved after cavitation surgery. I've also read about chest pains due to high mercury resolving after chelation therapy. On this biological dentist's site there's testimonials about chest pain/pressure resolving after extracting an infected tooth. I've also read about another condition called 'slipping rib syndrome' but it's hard to find a local practitioner familiar with treating it. But it's something you might want to look up. My ND said it's likely my gallbladder, but I haven't had any luck with the herbal treatment he prescribed for it. My cardiac workup came out normal and the cardiologist said it might be a nerve issue caused by Lyme so he referred me to a local llmd.

I had this too!!! It actually felt like an elephant was sitting on my chest and I couldn’t breathe. I’ve believe it was babesia because once I really got babesia under control the elephant feeling went away.

Lvg123, what did you do to get babesia under control? That's great that it went away, it's a very uncomfortable symptom.
