Um, well, this is a very old thread, but it came up when I did a google search for conditions that mimic a heart attack, lol. I love that when I search for anything tos related that 9 times out of ten this forum comes up in the first two pages.

Anyway, after going to the ER for this for the 3rd or 4th time over the past ten years, I have actually been given a name for this, rather than a tos flare up:

COSTOCHONDRITIS


Not that it changes much. Anyway, I was given a shot of toroidal and then 20 tablets to bring home at the ER with a diagnosis of "plursey". My boss brought me to the ER from work. Horribly embarrassing, I'm 34 years old. Follow up appointment with gp gave me this diagnosis with an explain action that since my posture is now absolutely perfect that other things will be in shock. .
