Went back to the docs as the pain was starting to feel really 'weird' (best way I can describe it) and I could swear there was a pocket of fluid or air under my ribs. Anyway, this time they x-rayed and found there was no break and that I had done something called "Costochondral Separation". Basically detaching the ribs from the cartilidge that connects them to the sternum. It makes more sense considering the felling of movement I get when I forget and try to lie on my side. Still bloody sore though. Had my first sneeze today, I wanted to cry or kill someone, noone was within arm's reach....
Stopped taking the codeine cos they backed me up something rotten. A day off them and a dose of Guinness sorted that RIGHT out.
