Okay, so I don't really know how to discribe this but over the past 2 to 3 months I have noticed this weird chest feeling.....it's hard to describe, it's kind of like this sharpness, I don't think it's tightness. I feel it more on the exhale and it is more at the top of my chest close to the base of my neck. It comes and goes, I really noticed it after peanut butter so I stopped eating that. It's still happening. It almost feels like when you have a chest cold and the mucos is so dry that it does this tickle and makes you cough. Except I don't feel the need to cough. Is it because I'm on so many antihistamines that it dries me out and that weird feeling in my chest is actually irritation because I have no lubrication. Anyone else experience this. I think I will go see the doctor this week. Should I get tested for asthma? I don't have any wheezing. I just did a good cough for a secound and it felt better for like 20 secounds.

I have chosto from an old car accident.  It is a chronic form of inflammation.  When you have something inflamming, then when your masto acts up, that "thing" will get worse too.

Also,  a pulmonologist told me that women frequently experience arthritis symptoms initially in their ribs.  Ribs go first I guess!  

I was told to take Tylenol.  Mine bugs me sometimes... all that ticking, pain, and sometimes I can even hear it CREAK when I breathe out.  Totally creepy.
