What're the knots inbetween the shoulder blades? Are those calcified muscles? I think you're onto something when you mentioned the "kidney stone/inorganic calcium flush". Maybe we should all do that, I know those knots are quite common, it's just that I got lots of them, and a few rock-hard ones around my LEFT blade for over 10yrs!
I've noticed a lot of activities on my LEFT rib lately. Is the pancreas is trying to "release" something? Could those calcified knots on my left side be related to my low-function pancreas and the dull ache left to my navel. (I've read that a discolored navel is a sign of pancreatitis). Just wondering....
