After being extremely short of breath and unable to breath deeply without having massive pain in my chest, ribs and back, we called 911 and I was safely delivered by ambulance to the ER at GBMC.
Fearing another pneumothorax, I was quite relieved when the diagnosis was Pleurisy instead. *L*
In order to make this diagnosis, a CT scan and chest xray were ordered. The radiologist found a bit more then pleurisy, however ..... There seemed to be a 'mass' in my left breast - BUT they did not tell me that yet *L*
They were keeping me overnight anyway because of the drugs involved with controlling the pleurisy pain.
