September 26, 2015
Asked By:stylist19 in Florissant, MO

Had BA done last Thursday and the past three days I've had a stabbing pain under my ribs on the left side that radiates up to my collar bone. My PS advised my to get checked out at th ER for blood clots and lungs. Everything was fine! It feels almost like a cramp every time I take a deep breath and is better during the day and worse in the morning. Is this strange!?! No idea what it is! But it hurts!!
