Thank you for the advice. I have actually always had upper back and neck problems...noticed them at about the age of 19. I just always ignored it because I was so young and never thought that there was something wrong. I was seeing a chiropractor at the age of about 22 but that got so expensive and wasn't helping me.

As for the films I do have recent films on a disc with me. I am going to take them to the new doc so he can look at them and possibly show me where the rib is.

A few months back I was in PT for my lower back because this was before I realized I had an extra rib. Even my physical therapist/Chiropractor knew something was wrong because she wouldn't even touch my neck. She kept asking me if I was sure I had never been in a car accident....

However I quit PT because it wasn't working. She even told me it wouldn't help for my lower back problems.
