: )

According to the Dr's scale I've lost 12 lbs!!

My home scale is a bit harder to tell. It's about 1-2 lbs off from the dr's scale.

I went the dr's because my left chest was hurting a lot. I let it go for a bit thinking it was asthma related and finally went in today. Dr. diagnosed it as Costochondritis.

It's basically an inflamation of the cartiledge that attaches your ribs to your breast bone or sternum. I asked her if thats the case then why is the pain all over my left side. She said its because it can effect all over the rib cage. She basically said the cause of something like is either stress or a viral infection or bacteria from an operation. I think on me it was the viral infection.

Interesting huh? Well, I'm glad I finally know what it is and can move on from worrying. I tend to worry too much but its better than letting things go right?
