Hi everyone,
I have a few symptoms for some time now that I think are die-off. I already read about chest pains, I'm having stabbing pains in my chest on the left side which sometimes makes it hard to breathe deeply. But since a few weeks I also get stinging pains next to my belly button (in my pelvic area), which also makes it hard to breathe, they usually pass within an hour but it's very painful, does this sound familiar to someone?

Stabbing chest pains
Yes, Vicky, no need to worry I think. I occasionally get those stabbing chest pains on the left side, like someone's jabbing a knife into my heart repeatedly.
Yes
I get those as well, when I have not eaten sugar for a while, I am not in treatment yet though, so do not take my word. Just know I am an IC patient and know the pain you are talking about. It always scares me and I think I am having a heart attack and I sit there with my hand on my heart and check my breathing. Then I feel like it is more in my lungs...Not sure but its not fun.
