Should I be worried?

Options

Hello all,

I noticed a few weeks ago that I have some rib pain on one side.  It isn't pain that radiates - it only hurts when I press against the area - but it is a very sharp pain.  Any thoughts on what this might be?  I'm not scheduled for a checkup until the end of the summer.  It is hard to find a happy place between vigilance and paranoia.

    JeanGenie, although we can't guess what your pain might indicate, for your own peace of mind perhaps you could call your doctor's office to see about moving your checkup ahead? If you didn't have a history with BC, you'd see a doctor about a pain that you'd had for a few weeks, so that's sensible vigilance, not paranoia!

    Best wishes, and please keep everyone posted.
