Hi Jeff, I was in A&E recently with a severe coughing fit. Unfortunatelt they said that they couldn't do much for me. But while I was there I had really bad pains in my ribcage and the Doc gave me some Co Codamol which took the pain away in minutes. Might work for you.

All the best.

Ribcage pain is horrible, sorry you have this, I had a load of it when I had pleurisy from a virus years ago. Grayjay's co-codamol may help, or a stiff whisky !

Are you sure it's not indigestion. This happens to me quite often. I have learnt to live with it

Why live with it ?.. why not combine your food "combinations" correctly and get rid of it completely??.. I did, free of it for 6 years, no pills.
