I've been binding for around a year and a half with the underworks tri-top. I'm in between a small and a medium, though I usually wear the medium since its a bit more comfortable.
After a few months, I noticed that when I lay on my back at night, it almost feels and sounds like there's liquid or something building up in my lungs. It's not a significant amount and it's not causing any pain or difficulty breathing, it just makes me a bit nervous.
But last night, sometime in the middle of the night, I woke up with a sharp, stabbing pain on my right side, going from my back, through my chest on my side, through my ya know, and then down on the higher part of my stomach.
In the morning I was laying down and it happened again, it only lasts like 2 seconds and it seems to make a circle like movement, which is really odd and freaky.
And since I'm going through a lot of dysphoria with my chest with it being summer and all, and both my doctor and therapist (who doesn't have a lot of experience with transgender people) both tell me that I HAVE to wait until I'm 18 to do anything, so the random pain is aggravating me to no end.
Has anyone have had any pain like this before? or is it even binding related? I know that the only way to prevent binding pains is to not bind, but its not an option right now.
