I found out that my chronic rib pain is most likely rheumatory arthritis. I honestly don't know how to go about that but it does explain a lot that's going on with me. So yay for some progress after 2 years!

Ouch, sorry to hear that Jared_St. I don't know much about that condition other than it can be rather painful. And in the rib area, I can imagine there were some unknown chest pain scares when they didn't know what it was. Not fun.

I had an injury once. It took about 5 years to finally clear up and back to normal.

I was originally dealing with what was thought to just be costochondritis for about 2 years, which was confusing for the doctor I went to at my walk-in and gave the news. I just have to get the blood work to confirm it at this point
