I have this as well off and on, but pretty consistent the last 6 months. I wondered what it was! I appreciate the replies...Judi

Hi Judi, welcome to Connect! I’m sorry you’re going through those miserable symptoms too and I hope you find some help.
Keeping in mind, as I told @greekcan, I’m not a medical professional and can’t diagnose or prescribe treatment. Members of our forum can used their experiences to share with others who are having similar issues.

When did your stomach issues begin? Did you also have a hiatal hernia or pre-existing stomach issue such as gerd or acid reflux?

Hello @billjudis and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I appreciate your response to this discussion about tightness around the rib cage.

I'm wondering how long you've had this and what your doctors may have suggested?
