I apologize for not being around in the last while. I really thought I was better, I thought I finally beat the anxiety monster, but no, not true. :blush: I pulled a muscle on my side upper stomach, lifting a heavy banker box full of reports on a weird angle about two months ago. The pain came the next day, awful burning side pain. It slowly did get better, but never went away. I still feel it when I breathe deep or turn a certain way. Of course now I think it's something else, something more sinister. Please, someone tell me that muscular pain takes a long time to go away. I have a major doctor phobia also so asking medical advice is out of the question right now. I do have a yearly physical scheduled for June. I hate this negative thinking. It is very stressful. Thank you in advance for any encouraging words.

If you pulled it pretty good out could definitely take a bit to heal up

Yep, those are big muscles and will take time to heal.
