Luke you are not a joke don't ever think like that. I get in my shoulder blades, neck, abdomen.

I am currently in pain with my bowel right now and I'm doing everything in my power not to have a panic attack. Sometimes just talking to people can make you feel better

[lukeneal26]

thank you your so nice :) it was horrible I was jogging along happy as anything you know a bit tired im not that fit at the moment then bang it was a sharp pain and I mean complete agony doc never check my back just my lungs and heart

[LauraWoo84]

Have you taken any paracetamol to ease the pain slightly. How long has it been since you have been for a jog? You could have simply pulled a muscle. Please don't be so harsh on yourself, been kind to yourself you are dealing with a lot right now

You've been cleared medically so there's nothing wrong with you aside from anxiety. Please heed your doctor's words, take the meds to help you quit smoking. It's total irony to worry about your health and smoke. Take it from one who's paid the price for tobacco use. QUIT! Look into therapy, CBT, meds or a combination thereof to help you heal from the real illness.

Positive thoughts and Happy New Year!

been about 2 years since I did any exercise haha but I do a job where im on my feet up to 12 hours at a time so shouldn't be that unfit

Running/jogging will use different muscles to those you usually use standing on your feet/working all day. If you haven't run for while, it may also be that you are holding tension in your shoulders whilst running, which could very well cause some good muscle pain. The good thing is that the GP has checked you over and isn't concerned :) And they're helping support you through quitting smoking, which will do wonders for your health.

Do you suffer from heart burn/acid reflux this can cause the most horrendous pain in upper back and it can radiate into chest, hope your feeling bit better x

[lukeneal26]
