I'm sure you already know this but it wasn't in your post for anyone reading... Pain in the right shoulder is referred pain due to the fact that the phrenal nerve runs from the diaphragm to the right shoulder.<br /><br />For a long time I did not connect my symptoms until I found out about endometriosis. Only then did I suspect I had it on my diaphragm. It is really important to mention any seemingly unrelated pain to your consultant so that they can take a look. They would not routinely look at the diaphragm as it is looking up the pelvic cavity so mention all of those niggles!!
