I too had issues with costoconditus, had pulmonary embolism, chest pain, and spleen pain/pressure. I would go to physical therapist and have my ribs put back in place several times a week.

I spent 3 years on steroids about 5-7 mg a day, eventually my a1C was getting diabetic. I since have been on Low Dose Naltrexone and have got my life back. Still experiencing some nerve pain towards end of days. I would really recommend researching and talk to Dr. about LDN, Again it has been God send, been 6 months since I have had a rib out of place.
