    Got diagnosed with SRS months ago with a doctor after 6 years of doctors giving me ibuprofen (now allergic to), them blowing off the problem, and my mom telling to ignore it. She couldn't afford the appointments to check it out anyways, so I understand that, yet it also hurt that I had to endure that. Been doing research finally on SRS after being diagnosed since my doctor couldn't really do much to help (and, holy crap, there is not that much research). You were someone who came up. Thank you so much for your videos, because I feel like I can finally relate to someone.
    Because I live in the United States, something like SRS would definitely not be covered by insurance, so it's likely I won't get surgery or be able to treat it for a very long time (if at all), but you give me hope in possibly doing so someday. Thank you so much for your videos and I give you hope in a speedy recovery.

      thank you for saying that, it warms my heart ♥️ i’m really sorry to hear about the experience you have, no one deserves to be in this pain. i know about a lot of people in the unites states who has had it covered by insurance, but i suppose every case and every type of insurance cover different things. i’ll have you in my thoughts and hope that you get better soon 🌹

      Buy insurance that does cover it. Ask to be involved in a study.

      @@BrodeyDoverosx I live in the United States. Being someone who's disabled with many more things besides Slipping Rib Syndrome (SRS was the first step to MANY more stuff I discovered about myself since I had originally commented), I can't work in order to purchase insurance. The insurance I do have was not willing to cover the surgery, since they saw it as comestic. Either way, my surgeon said that my weight was going to cause too many complications while healing from surgery.
      Fortunately, the hospital I was going to get surgery from is a non-profit hospital, so they were going to fully cover it, based on my income (which was basically none).

    @jjossen - I see that you have not entered a post in a year or so. I hope all is well. Did you require any more surgeries? I fractured 2 ribs - 7 & 8 - and now feel crunching whenever I move. There are times when the pain is so intense that I cry out loud. In an early video, you mentioned that the cartilage can grow back. How do they keep your ribs aligned while you are waiting for that to happen and how long did it take?
    Thank you. Stay well.

      I've started a new, very busy life and don't really have time for UA-cam anymore. but I'm planning on making an SRS update video, probably at the start of summer or so. I've had three surgeries by now & will be having one more. the last one was a tie fix, where they broke several ribs and placed everything back together with titan plates and screws. I read about the cartilage growing back, but since then my surgeon told me it doesn't, so I'm not fully sure tbh. have you had any check ups? maybe plating could be an option for you?

    Hi!I came here after seeing your slipping rib syndrome video. I also recently suffered from that disease in my right 10th rib and had a resection surgery, but the pain came back, so I'm considering reoperation. Can you tell me the name of the second and third surgery you had? And I wonder if things are okay now. I feel so lost and scared as the pain recurs.I'm Korean and I'm going to the UK for a diagnosis! Can you share your information?

      hi!
      i had the same surgery yes, but on the other side. my SRS is (was?) bilateral, meaning i had it on both sides. they did one side first to see if it worked 😅 i’m about to have one more surgery, but not for srs. i have a costal arch deformity that contributes to a lot of my pain, so i’ll be getting that fixed 🌻

      sorry to hear it 😔 if you manage to perform the hooking maneuver on yourself, you have srs. try putting your fingers underneath where it hurts and see if you can move them. most doctors should be able to diagnose you, but i suggest printing papers/documents and bring them to your dr. if they don’t listen, go to the next one. good luck and don’t give up! 🌹
