I saw a doctor this morning and he thinks that this has NOTHING to
do with cancer. He also doesn't think I broke a rib because it didn't
hurt enough when he pressed on them. He thinks the pain is coming
from a strained muscle from mega coughing. He doesn't want to x-ray right now for two reasons ... 1) doesn't want radiation to the cancer "area" and
2) there would be no specific treatment if a rib is broken.

He told me to put ice on the area, take advil or some kind of anti-
inflammatory and to come back in a week if there is no improvement.
