I was diagnosed 12/06. Had 1st rib resection on right in 06/07 and on left 12/07. Don't know where I got this blessed thing-mva 12/03, rounded shoulders, fell out of tree 4/06. Have done lots of PT and exercises at home. Ice is the best besides the pain meds which I have weaned off so as not to get addicted (addiction in family). Seeing Dr. Ahn in LA and hopefully another block next Tuesday will reveal why the pain in my left is getting worse again!

I am very impressed with all of the things some of you have gone through and still have a positive attitude!! Gives me a reason to quit whining!!!
