Does anyone have any experience of this?
I'd never even heard of it until I was diagnosed with it today after 5 weeks of pain in my left ribs.
The go-to treatment seems to be anti-inflammatories which I can't take due to having IBD.
The doctor didn't really give me clear instructions, just that it will clear up in a few weeks' time and that I should rest and not do anything to provoke the pain.
I'm really ugh about this because I want to be out in this nice weather cycling and running. I make quite an effort to be active and keep fit as I think this is an important factor in keeping my colitis at bay, so I'm loathe to 'rest' for 6-8 weeks.
Can someone cheer me up by telling me they've had it and it went away easily?
