Health Q&A
I have cronic pain last 8 years...
. I have had bilateral lower costal margin (lower rib margin) pain, flank pain for about 8 years . Pain pattern Pain starts within 1 second of sitting. Standing reduces the pain by about 90% within 10 seconds. Walking causes only 2–5% pain. Before getting out of bed in the morning, I have no pain. Lying down causes about 20% pain. The pain is spread across both lower rib margins, not one small point. The sensation is mainly pressure/tightness, not burning or stabbing. The pain is NOT affected by Deep breathing Coughing Sneezing Meals Leaning forward Hard vs. soft chair Pressing on the painful area Tests reported as normal CBC ESR CRP Vitamin D Vitamin B12 Urine tests Chest X-ray Abdominal ultrasound Thoracic (dorsal) spine MRI Upper GI endoscopy Musculoskeletal ultrasound of the anterior abdominal wall Chest wall MRI has been performed, and the report is expected today.

Query for Second Opinion
Dec 2025–May 2026: Started with a long-lasting dry cough. All tests were completely normal: Chest X-ray, PFT (breathing test), FeNO (airway swelling test), and IgE (allergy blood test). June 5, 2026: Due to the ongoing cough and normal tests, the doctor gave a provisional diagnosis of Cough Variant Asthma and prescribed a Foracort 400 rotahaler twice daily. After June 5: Developed new, severe breathlessness and air hunger. This included a scary episode of sudden breathing struggle while sitting in my living room directly under the AC vent with the front door open. • Inhaler Response: Mixed. Sometimes Foracort significantly helps open my chest; other times it goes on its own • My Query: I am seeking a second opinion to confirm if this provisional diagnosis is correct, why my breathlessness started after June 5, and why the inhaler works only sometimes magically n sometimes slowly.
