@MatthewBowdish thank you! pain has lessened thnx to NSAID, but the asthma-like breathing issues persist. very strange. -
@michellemalkin ...to help keep lungs expanded and help prevent pneumonia, just like you would for bruised/broken ribs. No rib belts! -
@michellemalkin hope she's feeling better soon! Scary, I know. If she starts running fever or getting short of breath, get her to the ER.

@michellemalkin Does she do a lot of athletic activities, like cheerleading, or anything using her arms ? That also aggravates the condition -
@HarrietBaldwin not this semester. she did field hockey in the fall before shoulder surgery. -
@michellemalkin She'll be fine, my friend. Take a breath. It's always scary. You have an internet full of#PrayerWarriors working for you.

@michellemalkin it's a catch all for chest wall pain. Ask for xopenex: far less side effects than albuterol. Decreased anxiety & shakes. -
@DJlovesBacon thanks for the recommendation. the albuterol did give her the shakes!

@michellemalkin was in children's ER for my 18 only old daughter and she has bronchilitus (sp?). Using Flovent and albuterol...it is not fun -
@cebale they gave my daughter albuterol too - made her shaky. seemed to help a little. good luck with yours! -
@michellemalkin thanks and you too! Docs have basically diagnosed her with asthma...got an action plan and everything!
