Holy Pain. Or unholy pain. Whatever.
I have a very HIGH tolerance for pain. Normally, the Doctor looks at me and says "WHY didn't you come in sooner? Are you crazy?" Nope. Just didn't think it hurt that bad.
It seems that I have either broken/cracked/bruised a rib or torn a muscle. To say it hurts is a serious understatement. It was just a little uncomfortable yesterday. I would say about a 5 on the pain scale. Today, I woke up at a 12 and have remained at a constant 10 all day.
Breathing = Hurts
Driving = Hurts
Moving at all = Hurts
I mean brings me to tears hurts.
The breathing thing, not such a good idea to have problems breathing when you are an asthmatic.
Yes, I know, I should go to the Doctor. Stop pushing.
However, I do not have a Primary Care Physician. All of my Doctors are specialists. No need to have a PCP. Except in times likes these.
So it's an urgent care of the ER for me. Neither of which I want to deal with.

OMG, Mel! I hope you are ok and do not perish of your torn muscle/cracked skeleton/etc. Feel better soon!!!!
Get into an ER now!
This was the SAME pain when I had blood clots in my lungs. I thought I had pulled or bruised something.
Seriously, go now!
