Has anyone mentioned Colchicine? The approved use is for Gout but there is some off label use for other pain categories.
I had a left lower lobectomy six months ago and have been dealing with rib and diaphragm pain since. When I attempt a deep breath, it feels as if my diaphragm is restricted by ribs that don’t move. I don’t have effusion (fluid) or anything else that could cause the pain and can be evidenced with imaging. So after stopping my statin and letting it clear out, my Rheumatologist started me on lowest dosage today. I’m hopeful but realistic.
I have no idea yet if it will help me -
much less anyone else. But I thought I would mention.
Best of luck to you
