So...6 months ago (the week before I got engaged) I got a hairline fracture in one of my ribs. I went to the doctor, got an xray, he said it would heal on its own, etc.
Fast forward 6 months to Monday......I hired a personal trainer to start working me out to tone me up for my e-party and wedding....we work on upper body and abs. Well, turns out that I re-injured my rib.
Went to the doctor yesterday, had an xray, still need an ultrasound but now they think I damaged cartilidge. It hurts to sleep, cough, etc.
THIS STINKS! I need this to get better...its been 6 months!

They did the xray right away yesterday to make sure it wasnt broken, but I had to get back to work. I am going back to the doctor at 1:00 today to have a treatment done on the tissue below the rib to reduce the swelling. So I will have them send me for the ultrasound then

My goodness. Maybe you should go to another doctor and get a second opinion!
