Rubber band feeling in ribs
I have a rubber band feeling all around my abdomen, ribs to my back. Sometimes, I have pain in my left rib area. Due to the rubber band feeling, I have shortness of breath. I was operated on my spine 5 months ago due to Potts disease and have been bedridden since.
My doctor said it could be due to immobility.
Been taking TB meds for 5 months
