Well, I finally took a zanaflex around 2:30am last night. I couldn't lay down in any way. Was so miseralbe, I thought "take the pill or go to the ER"

I took it. Feel asleep sitting up, leaning over the recliner arm. I could not lean the recliner back.
I went to sleep around 3:30am. Woke up at 6am when DH's alarm went off.

I sat up and thought WOW!!!!!

I was stiff from sleeping like I was, but the ribcage pain was not there. I had some soreness, but nothing like it had been.
I went and got in bed and slept till 10am.

When I woke up, I felt fine. Then decided to get some stuff done around here. Didn't take me long to realize I have to take it easy. I'm hurting again and I really didn't do too much. Just unloaded and loaded the dishwasher. Started a load of clothes and took the trash out to the barrells.

I'm going to call the doctors office when they get back from lunch. See if she will call me in some zanaflex. Can't use to many of my daughters.
Some how I have the feeling the PCP will want to see me. I honestly cannot afford to go to the doctor right now.

It will cost me $84 just to go in. Then if she wants to make sure it's not major and orders an xray, I'd have to pay for that too. I know I wont get out of there without paying $200. Then have to buy the zanaflex.
(house payment week, can't do it)

At least I do know it's a muscle thing. lol Doesn't help the pain, but at least I know.

Thank you all so much for the help. This was really starting to scare me.
