Breast bone and shoulder pain

Palms

Hi , I have arthritis in my fingers , hands , neck , and back ! Some mornings when I wake up I have pain in my breast bone which seems to radiate across my chest which seems to go when I get up and move around , it feels like the same sort of pain I get everywhere else , I was wondering if anyone else gets this sort of thing.

Hello @Palms and welcome to the community. We are a friendly and supportive group and I do hope that you find that to be the case as well.

I understand that you have arthritis in your fingers, hands, neck and back and occasionally breast bone. Our website contains a lot of useful information and I would encourage you to have a look around and use the search function. To help I've put a couple of links below to get you started.

I hope that these are of some use. I myself suffer from osteoarthritis in my hands so know how difficult that can be.

Please do keep posting and let us know how you get on and I hope that others will connect with you and share their experiences and possibly about your breast bone pain. If this is new though I would suggest consulting your GP.

With very best wishes
