You really need to see your doctor. It's better safe than sorry.

Hi - I used to get something like your description pretty frequently around month 6-8 where it would throb and ache around the rib cage, especially at the bottom. My doctor basically said it is Costochrondritis (inflammation):

Does this sound like something you might be dealing with? I think it was caused by a lot of stress on the body ligaments and such from cross fit workouts. Running 5k and 10k every other day also aggravated the condition. I stopped running so much (now about 5-7 miles a week max), but am pretty tough on my self in terms of other physical activity. Do you work out a lot? If so, you might consider this condition.

Once I increased the Omega 3s to super level (3-6 g a day), the rib cage pain subsided and does not make a guest appearance in my body very often any longer. Pan medicine that controls inflammation (NSAID) can also manage the pain levels. However, I do think Omega 3 is the supplement that really helped manage this on a regular basis. I do not need to take inflammation relaed pain meds like IBU any longer ( was dosing around 800 mg).

Agree with others about going to the doctor soon...

Do you still have your gall bladder? If so, it might be pain caused from gall stones.
